Le Morne Le Paradis Beach is a beautiful stretch of coastline beneath the dramatic silhouette of Le Morne Brabant. Reaching it takes a little more effort than some of Mauritius’ easier-access beaches, with a longer walk from the public car park — but that journey is part of the appeal.
Once there, expect turquoise lagoon views, a quieter atmosphere and good opportunities for snorkelling when conditions are suitable. It is an ideal spot for travellers who enjoy combining a scenic coastal walk with swimming, snorkelling and time by the water.
