    La Cuvette Public Beach Mauritius: La Cuvette meaning the tub as to say the beach is almost the size of a bath tub, but don't get it wrong, it's a very nice small beach. Being there for a day can be cool as their are quite a few Mauritian food and beverage stalls with table and chairs, if you bring your own there are lots of trees to picnic and relax under. While there they were some children playing football on a small area and they were really having fun👍

    During the week, this became my favourite beach - just chill, enjoy and make sure to eat at the huts - they cook really well. Thank you for taking such good care of this beautyful place.

    ⚠️ Beautiful beach, although if you go early in the morning and are alone, watch for muggers or suspicious people getting close to your things. They will try to take advantage of the fact that you are alone, and will snatch your things and run with a motorcycle. Be aware of your surroundings at all times!

    Beautiful, small and well maintained beach found in the north. I love the spot in front of the beach, the sea surrounded by trees and rocks. Easily located from Google maps and accessible to public. There is snack shops all around and even pickles and fruit salads. The beach is equipped with bench, dustbins and parking slots. The place is clean and please make use of the bin so that our future generations can enjoy the same view. Follow me on Instagram @mauritian_feed

    Amazing beach! We spent a month in Mauritius and went to many beaches and La Cuvette was our favourite. The beach is small, so best to come on a weekday when it's less busy. Camille Snack serves very nice food.

    Lovely little beach, which is good for swimming too. The views of the waters and mountains in the distance are great too. There is a paved area to sit down and relax as well as some merchants selling a few things including food. There are some lights for anyone around in the evening.

    Very nice, quite and beautiful beach. The blue lagoon looks fabulous. It is also a perfect beach for snorkeling with clear sand, water and beautiful corals. Highly recommended for family and friends. Only disappointment was that they don't have a beach facing good public restaurants.

  • 5/5 Warwick (The Saucy M. 8 months ago on Google • 203 reviews
    This a a great beach to visit, it’s closed off to through traffic, so it’s quiet and rustig, (relaxed in Afrikaans). A perfect place to picnic, or you can get food and drinks from the vendors there. There is some parking available, about 30 to 40 spaces. But over the weekend, especially on Sunday it can fill up very quickly. If you are staying in Grand Bay, rather take a walk. There are enough pavements (sidewalks) to get you there. The toilets are clean, and there are a few options if you are in a hurry 😏

    It’s a wonderful little beach especially early in the morning on a weekday, when there’s barely anyone. Be aware of some dogs and maybe a man trying to sell activities for tourists (usually sellers understand from the first no that we don’t need anything but this bighead even started to insult us and didn’t leave us alone until I raised my voice).

    Nice little beach where I often walk to from grand baie. There are some snacks and good outlets, public toilets and showers. Lots of rocks and there are trees for shade. Benches to sit also. N’joy restaurant/bar is also there and open most days for lunch.

  • 5/5 Heidi S. 6 months ago on Google • 69 reviews
    Like a private beach, but it is open for the public. A bit of a walk from the main road coming in past the casino. We took the bus from Grand Baie. The most beautiful, clean, clear, calm sea water. Food being sold at these food stands. Nice clean public toilets. However, the changing rooms across the market area were not nice at all.

    Small beach that’s just far enough off the main street that you feel like you’re exploring. There are food vendors, change rooms, and washrooms available too. The beach is clean and free from boats. We spent a few hours swimming in the water and drying off under the hot sun. There is some shade available from the trees at the back of the beach.

    First recommendation stop for all our guests to the North of Mauritius. This beach offer a view to the magnificent Grand Baie area. A chance to see some beautiful boats, catamaran's, fisherman boats, speed boats, divers coming back from some diving spot, tourists enjoying the sun. Have a bite of real Mauritian food. See the famous Dry Fountain. Meet local families having a peaceful mealtime.

    Beautiful, small beach. Probably the best one in Grand Baie. Right next to the beach there are public rest rooms (like on most public beaches on Mauritius) but also changing rooms and few snack bars. It's lovely but it might get crowded easily during the weekend or in high season.

    Very nice beach, with soft white sand and turquoise water. Went there during the week and it was not very crowded. There are also some shops there from where you can buy coconut, fruits, drinks, noodles..

    It's the best beach for bathing for sure. Clean with plenty of activities in the area. Water is clean without any sea weed or corals floating on the edges. There is a fresh water fountain to bath later as well. Great place in all of Mauritius.

    Beautiful beach, although a bit small I do like how clean and we'll maintain it is. I'd suggest ideally staying on the right side rather than the left as there is less seaweed and rocks on the right side.

    One of the best beaches on the northwest coast 😍 Small, but clear water, soft sand, and clean. Not many people ( only at weekends, like everywhere). From Monday to Friday, you can rent sunbeds and umbrellas 👍🏾

    We swam here early in the morning and under the rain - when the beach was deserted and we loved it! Not sure if it would be as sweet if we’d been there during a busy day.

    Lovely little beach, felt like a bit of a secret… we came across it by accident as our favourite beach is Perebeyre beach, it’s a small cove like beach with some rocks and fish to the side of the beach. Great for small kids. There are lots of trees to keep the hot sun off your backs and and people selling some nice snacks. Lovely spot. Can get busy. Go very early or later on in the day… well worth it. It’s super duper.

👍👍 A truly secret place between the beaches Pereybere and Grand Baie. Since there is no direct access to the beach, there are very few people here.
