The most beautiful and popular beach on the island is the long, wide and white sandy beach of Boucan. Whether you are looking for adrenaline sports or just a beach of white warm sand on which to sunbath and relax, this is the ideal spot for you! The coral reef is only a few metres from the shore, offering breathtaking views of the underwater fauna and it is very accessible. The surf spot is well known for its "left going waves" and many beach sports can be done there. It should be noted that it is crowded at weekend and hence, there are often traffic jams.
