The beaches of Le Morne are as breathtaking in person as they are in the glossy brochures, with powdery soft white sand, lined with palms and the gently lapping emerald waters of the surrounding lagoon.
Perfect for simply basking in the warm sun and the idyllic scene, the magnificent coast of Le Morne also invites you to indulge in many water sports such as surfing or windsurfing. Fishing and scuba diving will also be a priority during your stay in Le Morne. Those of you who wish to see something extra special can take a helicopter ride high up above the peninsula and look down upon the jaw-dropping 'underwater waterfall' that lies just off its coast.
Recognised by UNESCO in July 2008, the mountain of Le Morne Brabant stands majestically at 556 metres above sea level, the south-westernmost point of Mauritius. This striking natural monument not only lends the region its name but also plenty of hiking and outdoors activities for visitors to partake in.
Those who choose to scale Le Morne Brabant will be rewarded with some truly jaw dropping views of the surrounding coastline. Hiking enthusiasts can also go deep into the native forest before heading off to the secret caves of this basaltic rocky mountain in which are hidden numerous historical artefacts.
The mountain also holds special significance within the island's story of liberation from slavery, albeit a tragic one. For years the mountain sheltered Maroons, slaves who had escaped the French and Dutch sugar plantations, and who used its caves and thick vegetation as cover from the eyes of slavers and to live in freedom. When on the 1st of February 1835, a police boat arrived to inform the Maroons that slavery had been abolished and that they were now free men and women, the message was misinterpreted and the islanders - fearing being rounded up once more - fled to the top of the mountain where they threw themselves to their deaths, preferring to die free than to live once more in slavery. This episode is commemorated today every 1st February and holds deep meaning to this day for the islanders, whose dignity and decency stands as a testament to those who lived there before them.
