Trou aux Biches Beach
8 Kellan Rye

This public beach boasts a picturesque setting with towering palm trees and pristine white sand. However, it is important to note that shade is limited and the presence of numerous boats can be a bit overwhelming. Additionally, the entrance is covered in sharp corals that can be painful to walk on. Despite these minor drawbacks, it's undoubtedly the perfect spot for an unforgettable swim with turtles.

This beach is stunning, with its large black rocks and white sand patches. There is a sizable pine forest with parking spots, a couple of food stalls, and a restroom. Unfortunately, swimming is not allowed due to the powerful currents and the rocks.

What a fantastic experience! The staff and amenities were excellent. Our private pool, which was heated, was at the perfect temperature, and the room service was quick, allowing us to enjoy meals from any of the four restaurants available on site. It's clear that they make an extra effort to treat their guests like royalty. Absolutely outstanding! We will definitely return for another visit. Thank you once again, Kiran and the rest of the team, for making our stay so memorable.

This beach is absolutely stunning and offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The sandy shore is quite expansive and is surrounded by a picturesque line of pine trees. There are a few amenities available, including a small public restroom, some parking spots, and a few benches for sitting. However, it's important to note that the ocean currents can be quite strong, as indicated by the dangerous bathing signs.
