islets. Safe and peaceful bathing is assured there. To the East is a little jetty leading to deeper waters for swimming and diving.
The light is magical on this turquoise lagoon and low tides are spectacular - a rare phenomena in Mauritius -, exposing vast sand banks. L'Ilot, although an integral part of Mauritius, offers a retreat if desired. With a 360° panorama the scenery is transformed all the time. Depending on the wind, the light, the ocean swell, l'Ilot shimmers and changes constantly, upwind or downwind, hot or cooled by sea breezes.
