Flic en Flac is a lively resort on the west coast of Mauritius, which overlooks a stunning, sheltered beach that stretches for more than 5 miles. It’s the second biggest resort on the island after Grand Baie, although it still has all the tranquil island charm for which Mauritius is famous. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and cafés, plus an adventure park with a zoo to keep kids happy. Flic en Flac is also a great base for a host of day trips, whether you want to visit the vibrant island capital of Port Louis, the stunning wilderness of the Black River Gorges National Park, or the moving monument to the slave trade in the Le Morne Brabant Mountain, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Flic en Flac also has a range of all inclusive hotels for those who just want to relax.
