Mont Choisy Beach

Close to the northern tip of Mauritius in Pamplemousses district, Mont Choisy Beach is just ten minutes from the hotels and nightspots of Grand Baie, and half an hour from Port Louis. Mont Choisy Beach is the longest in northern Mauritius. Stretching from Trou aux Biches to Pointe aux Canonniers, its white sands arch attractively along its length so that there’s generally always a quiet spot to enjoy it in relative seclusion.

From Mont Choisy Beach visitors are able to take part in a huge number of water sports, including the hiring of pedalos, and boat trips by speedboat and catamaran. Both snorkelling and scuba diving are popular, with dive sites over colourful reefs and shipwrecks.

It’s not uncommon to see people riding horses along the beach, while an 18-hole golf course lies nearby. Topless sunbathing is allowed on Mont Choisy Beach, however full nudism is prohibited.
