Flic en Flac Beach
On the internet, you can find information that this is the best beach on the island. In fact, it is a good beach, with parking, toilets and showers, but it is not good in all places. Near the large hotels (approximately here -20.301000, 57.364028), where the shore is cleaned, it is much better than in the free parking area. We were right next to the car park and our children couldn't swim here, they just played in the sand. The fact is that the entire bottom is covered with stones, which are quite difficult even for adults to walk on, read more...

A cool waterfall in a wild place, we really liked it. It's not so easy to get there, the turn-off from the main road is here -20.516389, 57.520333, there is a sign there. There are also signs further on, but you might not see them. You need to drive to -20.505222, 57.516917, following this route (google.maps). The route may change, as there are fields and dirt roads.
