A dramatic blowhole where waves create spectacular water spouts.
Le Souffleur is a natural blowhole on the rugged south coast of Mauritius, where waves force water through a hole in the volcanic rocks.
When conditions are right, water can shoot up to 20 meters into the air, creating a spectacular natural fountain.
The surrounding cliffs and crashing waves make this one of the most dramatic natural sites on the island.
