Blue Bay is famed for its unusually clear, turquoise lagoon next to a protected marine park.
Glass-bottom boats reveal coral gardens and colourful reef fish just metres from shore.
The beach itself is calm and shaded, ideal for families and snorkellers.
It sits close to Mahébourg, making it an easy stop when exploring the south-east.
