Grand-Bay is called "small Saint-Tropez" of Mauritius. This village
of fishermen became in 20 years hardly a famous seaside resort. But reassure,
nothing to see with our over-populated and denatured Riviera. Here the Mauritians
knew to develop a tourist city of human size, without buildings and cages
of concretes.
With not missing, the return of fishing. On stalls of fortune, you will be
able to admire and buy beautiful fish, fished in the lagoon or with its accesses.
These fish and seafood, coldly fished are quickly resold at the local restaurants
and you will be able to taste them the evening even in the restaurants of
the city and the surroundings.
Here one seldom eats frozen, and even if Super U of the corner (and yes!)
propose frozen. it is preferable to taste with fish and seafood local and
fresh. We advise you nevertheless (with the fresh ray) Marlin Fumé,
fished in water Mauritians and at accessible price. Ideal with a salad (tomatos,
green salad, onions), a delight.
With Large-Bay, which shocks, it is the impressive number of shops of clothing.
Then if you like shopping it is the place dreamed to unearth marks at reduced
price.
Hugo Boss, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren. For "connected" the RIP Curl,
Quicksilver, and for most fortunate Harper' S, max Mara...
Contrary to certain generally accepted ideas or certain rumours, it sagit
not of counterfeits, but well of true marks at price defying any competition.
Large-bay is also the starting point of many excursions towards the islands
of north.
You will find there also many centers of diving and fishing with large.
To Sunset Boulevard, a center of diving exposes its photographs of trophies,
with impressive catches of "ENORMOUS" tunas or marlins, with in
premium of the photographs of our singer Carlos, amateur of fishing to large
and in love with Mauritius. Photographs yellowed certainly, because Carlos
so that it appears, does not come much any more to Maurice, in any case for
fishing with large!
The public beach, in the center of the village is a little small and quickly
over-populated the weekend, but by moving you more in north of the village,
you will also find another beach public, small, but pleasant and of any beauty,
which bears well its name "the basin". A beautiful sight on the
lagoon, and a pleasant place, with a turquoise and hot water. The ideal place
for a bathe and a meeting bronzette! Far from the salesmen from shells, collars
and others babioles, which you will not fail to meet on the beaches of Maurice
and more particularly between Trou with the Hinds and Large-Bay.
