Beach · East Mauritius
Palmar Beach
Palmar Beach is a public stretch of white sand on Mauritius's east coast, near Belle Mare and Trou d'Eau Douce. A shallow turquoise lagoon protected by an offshore reef makes it calm for swimming, and casuarina trees behind the sand give natural shade. The east-facing shore is popular for sunrise views and quiet picnics.
