A paradise island on the west coast, famous for dolphin watching and Crystal Rock
A paradise island on the west coast, famous for dolphin watching and the iconic Crystal Rock. Ile aux Bénitiers (or Île aux Bénitiers) is a long, narrow island off the village of La Gaulette, often visited on combined dolphin and island tours.
The island has beautiful beaches, shallow waters ideal for swimming and snorkeling, and the famous Crystal Rock—a photogenic rock formation in the lagoon. Many catamaran and speedboat tours include a stop here after a morning dolphin swim.
You can relax on the beach, enjoy a BBQ lunch, or explore the lagoon. It's one of the most popular day-trip destinations from the west and south-west coast.
