Mont Choisy Beach: The Jewel of North-West Mauritius
A stretch of paradise in the heart of the Indian Ocean
Mont Choisy beach, located in the north-west of Mauritius, stretches majestically for almost 3 kilometers, from Pointe aux Canonniers to Trou aux Biches via Pointe aux Piments. This long strip of fine white sand is one of the most beautiful public beaches in the Mauritian archipelago, offering a haven of peace to visitors in search of authenticity and natural beauty.
A postcard setting
Mont Choisy beach is a picture-postcard setting, with its vast expanse of white sand bordered by a turquoise lagoon. This long stretch of soft white sand wraps around a turquoise bay lined with casuarinas. The striking contrast between the golden sand, the crystal-clear waters in shades of blue and turquoise, and the tropical vegetation creates a breathtaking panorama that perfectly embodies the paradisiacal image of Mauritius.
The arched shape of the bay naturally protects this beach from prevailing winds, creating ideal conditions for swimming and relaxing. The beach is well sheltered from the wind, which means it's not ideal for windsurfing or kitesurfing, but it does create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere.
