The Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden features giant water lilies and 18th-century plant species, while L’Aventure du Sucre explores the island's sugar industry within a converted factory. Historical architecture is preserved at the 19th-century Labourdonnais Château. The coastline includes Trou aux Biches and Mont Choisy, known for their white sands and casuarina-lined shores, alongside the boat-filled waters of Grand Baie.
