La Preneuse Beach in Mauritius
Back to all Beaches

La Preneuse

WestSecluded

If you're looking for a break from the bustling crowds, this tranquil beach on the west coast could be the perfect pick!

This is often an overlooked beach due to its seclusion but do not underestimate sunset time at La Preneuse as it gets truly magical! Most fishing activities depart from La Preneuse, so it is a good experience to witness on an early morning jog. It also serves as a hub for dolphin watching off the coast and boat transfers to Ile aux Benitiers. On a low tide, La Preneuse surprises you once again – here appears a little sand bank which is eventually not visible on high tides. There is nothing much happening at La Preneuse, except on weekends when locals enjoy their family day out.
