Tourism - La Réunion



Located in the Mascareignes archipelago, in the south-west of the Indian Ocean,Reunion Island is a French department as well as a European Union region. The tourism industry is a major activity on the island and the tropical climate, various black volcanic sand or white coral sand beaches, its shallows lagoons and surf spots are a major tourist attraction. Its main city is Saint-Denis.

The Reunion Island offers fantastic landscapes often unreachable by car that makes it a heaven for hikers, indeed, the primary forests, sunken gullies, waterfalls and caldeiras as well as the active but harmless volcano ‘Piton de la Fournaise’ offer spectacular hikes and walks. One can also speak about the merits of the mixed and tolerant local population, the fragrant cuisine and the Creole art of living together with the comfort, security and infrastructure of the any other French department.
