This small coral islet near Mahébourg is a protected nature reserve run by conservation groups.
Guided walks showcase rare native plants and reintroduced species like the pink pigeon.
It’s one of the few places left with a glimpse of Mauritius’s original coastal forest.
Access is by short boat trip with a mandatory guided tour.
