The lagoon offers a breathtaking sight and the scenery is enhanced by the outlying Ile aux Bénitiers. The public beach is quite popular.

Diving facilities are provided by Easydive of Berjaya and Diveplan of the Le Paradise. Big-game fishing arrangements can be made with Beachcomber Fishing Centre at Le Paradis.

The Morne mountain is associated with a vivid episode of Mauritian history. It is believed that rebellious slaves fleeing plantations took refuge on the peak because of its inaccessibility. Legend has it that when the British soldier tried to reach the area to annouce that slavery had been abolished, the fugitives wrongly thought they cornerd. Many of them preferred to jump to their death from the peak to avoid recapture into the bonds of slavery.

The coastal road from Le Morne to Souillac highlights a different perpective of Mauritius, with its wild vegetation and sparsely populated areas. Baie du Cap is a welcome stop after Le Morne. The view which unfolds while one is driving around the bay to the Macondé promontory is unique in Mauritius.
