Sitting on golden sands, you might want to find refuge at one of the finest hotels located at Balaclava.
Think waves lapping against golden sand, along with a mesmerizing coral barrier reef making it the go-to spot for swimming, snorkeling and kayaking. This is where all your beachy needs are met, starting from a morning jog in the sand to sourcing the perfect hammock spot.
Should the crowd bother you (during peak seasons or weekends), you can always walk back up to your hotel's pool area. Indeed, a great way to enjoy a beach holiday.
Likewise, Balaclava is rich in history and plays a big role in Mauritius' historical heritage. Once in the area, you will be able to spot a few preserved ruins such as old mills and a distillery.
