Souillac, Mauritius

Rating: 5.00 out of 5.00. 1 members have rated this tip
Displayed: times.A small seaside resort along the rugged coast in the Savanne district. The appeal of Souillac lies in its scenery, for it is not a bathing spot. In striking contrast to the high cliffs here drop abruptly to the sea and the bracing winds of the Indian Ocean blow all the year round. A charming feature is the garden overlooking the sea, named after Dr. Charles Telfair. At the southern end of the village a favorite viewpoint is Gris-Gris on the cliff top. Facing it, the sea engulfs itself in dark rocks, which have hollowed out by the contrast crashing of the waves. More info on: www.ocean-villas.com
