La Cuvette beach
Updated: September 6, 2024
La Cuvée beach is located in the north of the island and is ideal for those who want to avoid the crowded tourist areas. This small, tree-lined stretch of coastline is perfect for a relaxing swim.
The beach is surrounded by verdant rocks and vegetation that create a cozy tropical atmosphere, while the pure white sand and crystal clear water are perfect for those who like to swim and relax in peace. The water at the beach is usually calm and quiet as La Cuvette is located in a sheltered cove, making it popular with families with children.
La Cuvette is also popular with diving and snorkeling enthusiasts: here you can take day or night excursions at the diving school and explore the colorful underwater world of Mauritius, and thanks to the crystal clear water, it is a great place to observe the underwater world with its diverse marine life.
Infrastructure on the beach is minimal, but there are restaurants and cafes in Grand Baie within walking distance for lunch or refreshments.
One of the must-dos when visiting La Cuvée Beach is to enjoy the view of the setting sun.
After a day at the beach, you can try your luck at the Grand Baie Casino and then head to one of the nearby restaurants for dinner. Some of the best include La Botteghita and Luigi's Italian Pizzeria. Nightlife enthusiasts should check out OMG Nightclub for a night on the dance floor. La Cuvee is just a short drive from Grand Baie.
