Cape Malheureux is located at the northern point of the island.
This village is a small corner of paradise, isolated, far from all and especially
of tourism of mass.
The so particular name of this village comes owing to the fact that this course
is a place or many ships made shipwreck, while being failed on the barrier
from coral.
One of the most famous monuments of the island is at this place; it is the
small red and white church which dominates the sea. This place of worship
is very attended by the catholics Mauritians. One celebrates there many festivals,
marriages...
Sunday, one sings there, one dances there, and it would be necessary to hold
its place in advance almost there so much this church fills the tank. It should
be said that it is magnifiquement posed at the edge of the lagoon, in a avre
of peace and greenery.
Cape Malheureux is especially a village of fishermen. Those leave the morning
early to fish in the lagoon, or slightly outside. They can with the help of
a few hundred rupees take you along to fish with them with the "palangrote".
You can go to visit my page devoted to fishing in Palangrote . A method of
artisanal, but effective and pleasant fishing, would be this only to pass
a half day at sea with the fishermen and to bring back beautiful photographs,
beautiful memories and beautiful multicoloured fish. There too, you provide
with an effective solar protection, because as of 8 H of the morning, and
even if the sun is hidden, you are likely to catch beautiful sunstrokes!
After midday, worms 14 hours, the fishermen return of fishing and they can
propose ballades in the lagoon to you
