Reunion Island

There is much more to beautiful Reunion island than simply the imagined beaches of an Indian Ocean Island. There is it’s intriguing status as an overseas department of France to start with. The mountains of the interior are of volcanic origin, up to 3 000 metres high and a major attraction for hiking enthusiasts. 

Breathtaking Scenery

The three diverse Cirques of Mafate, Salazie and Cilaos offer breathtaking scenery, and the active volcano of Piton-de-la-Fournaise is a "must see" for all visitors to Reunion. If you enjoy hiking, canyonning, paragliding, mountain biking, scuba diving or surfing, the chances are that you'll enjoy Reunion. Other highlights of Reunion include the people and the unique fusion of Creole and French culture.

A Vague Undercurrent of French Sophistication

Reunion is a small, nearly circular island, that has a good road network of 240 km, and the ideal way to get around the island is on a self-drive itinerary. The tourist accommodation on the whole is casual but comfortable, with most establishments being intimate in size and ambience. 

There are short daily flights from Mauritius and there are services from Johannesburg, the Seychelles & Madagascar. So why not extend after a visit to any of these destinations or stopover on your way. South Africa, Reunion and Mauritius - sound good?
