West Coast

The West Coast offers the traveller a plethora of things to do and see. There are plenty of resorts to choose from all with lovely stretches of sandy beaches. The lagoons make it easy for swimming and ideal for those who enjoy water sports, including water-skiing, kayaking and sailing.

The main coastal town on the West Coast is the once small fishing village of Flic en Flac, now a popular tourist destination second only to Grand Baie. Like Grand Baie there are a number of hotels and resorts supported by local shops, bars and restaurants.

Just inland you will find a selection of nature parks. If you are looking for thrills then Casela Park offers you wildlife and great views alongside quad biking, zip lining and jeep rides. For sheer beauty and the opportunity to hike, then a visit to the Black River Gorges should be on your list. Enjoy one of the many trails that take you inside the gorges itself.
