Situated on the West Coast and boasting views over the deep blue Ocean, 350 days of sunshine year-round and romantic sunsets, this area has attracted visitors and people wanting to live there alike.

So a veritable boom has taken place, and former fishermen village Flic en Flac as well as once pristine and green Tourelle of Tamarin Mountain are today dotted with any kind of luxurious dwelling.

The area’s vicinity to interesting sights and places such as Chamarel, Black River Gorges National Park, Casela Adventure Park or shopping Malls such as Ruisseau Creole, London Way or Franprix adds to its popularity. Black River is the centre of deep sea fishing, whereas due to its particular location, Tamarin is famous for surfing and dolphin excursions. The area around Le Morne Brabant Mountain is a Mecca for windsurfers, and Flic en Flac is more known for lazy days at the beach and its budding nightlife.

The West Coast is the driest zone on Mauritius Island. Especially the lands between Le Morne Peninsula and Flic en Flac are extremely dry in summer and an interesting fauna and flora prevails, with many species of cacti and rare birds such as the pink pigeon or the echo parakeet.
