At Belle Mare you will find a beautiful white sandy beach with fine bathing. The coast, with its white sweep of sands at Palmar and Trou d Eau Douce stretches out to Blue Bay. In a semicircle of filao trees lies one of the finest bathing spots on the island. Blue Bay offers a fine stretch of white sandy beach, and a deep, clear, light-blue bathing pool.

During your stay do allow yourself the pleasure of eating local food at a table d hote or in the various specialised restaurants.
