La Cuvette Beach

About La Cuvette Beach

Get ready to head to the North side of the island for a much needed break at this intimate spot!

Located in the centre of the busy town of Grand Bay is the small and intimate beach of La Cuvette. This beach is near the famous Royal Palm Hotel, which is considered to be one of the best hotels on the island. When driving to Pereybere from Grand Bay, there are indications to help you to get to the beach.

The beach is clear from rocks and corals but also has the trademark crystal clear water with beautiful shades of blue. A lot of tourists who wish to get away from the noise of Grand Bay will choose to pop over to La Cuvette where they are able to either spend a lazy day soaking in the sun or even enjoy the turquoise waters with a much needed refreshing swim. If you wish to have some time in the shade instead of soaking in the sun, La Cuvette beach also has plenty of trees offering shade to those seeking refuge from the sun.

For those who are up to some water activities, there are several activities carried out at the La Cuvette beach such as underwater sea walk, parasailing as well as deep-sea diving, which are all available on pre-booking basis only.

Since the beach is very close to Grand Bay, there are many facilities nearby which are just a couple of minutes away. There are also a couple of street food stalls at the beach itself for some local treats.

Since La Cuvette is quite a small beach, it does get packed really fast especially during weekends hence we do recommend visiting the beach on weekdays, you can even combine the visit with a trip to Grand Bay as well.
