Tourism

Make the most of your stay on Reunion Island…

 …and come away with an unforgettable experience!

Relax at the beach (from Saint Gilles to Saint Pierre): white or black sand, take a dip in the lagoon, go for a stroll, enjoy a fine meal or cocktail by the seashore…

 Scale the gorgeous mountains: countless hikes, viewpoints that will take your breath away, photogenic and diverse landscapes…

 Down by the sea: boat trips to admire the coastline and meet the dolphins, explore the rich underwater flora and fauna, the colorful coral reeds, either by snorkeling in the lagoon, scuba diving or taking a glass bottom boat!

 See the sights from up high: unique helicopter tours fly over the seaside, the mountain corries and/or the volcano; paragliding on the western coast …

 Stroll in the local market (Saint Denis’ on Wednesdays, Saint Paul’s on Fridays or Saint Pierre’s on Saturdays) and have a taste of pineapple, coconut, mango, banana, soursop, passion fruit, strawberry guava, dragonfruit, tangor, vanilla, samosas, dim sum… And discover the traditional arts and crafts of the Indian Ocean!

Discover the lush vegetation: botanical gardens (Mascarin Botanical Conservatory in Saint Leu), Saint Denis State Garden...

Visit a distillery, a cane sugar mill, a vanilla plantation, a chocolate factory...

Saunter in the museums (http://www.museesreunion.re): Natural History Museum in Saint Denis, Sea Turtle Sanctuary in Saint Leu, Indian Ocean Decorative Arts Museum in Saint Louis.

The hard part will be deciding what to do!
