Saint-Gilles beach

Ultimate guide (March 2024)
Saint-Gilles is a beach in the west of Reunion island. The best island's beaches are right here. However, don't expect too much. Though landscape is tropical, but rather mediocre. And besides, swimming in the waters of Reunion has a risk of being killed by a shark. Such incidents happens sometimes, though not very often. Shore and seabed: sand, pebbles. [edit]
This beach ranks #323 of the "Best beaches in the Indian Ocean"

Useful information [edit]

All other beaches in Reunion are even worse. The beaches are generally not the strongest side of the island. The main thing here are stunning mountain landscapes and excellent infrastructure for eco-tourism. In addition the Reunion is the real France, which gives additional feeling of luxury to this outstanding location.
