About this experience
Get panoramic views from the La prairie beach before making your way to the Macondé viewpoint and Riviere des galets to discover the flux and reflex of waves .
Continue to the Enertigical Vortex to find your inner peace in a unique landscape and afterwards we head to the home of waterfalls called Rochester Falls. Afterwards the guide stops at Gris Gris which is one of the best cliffs with high waves, followed by roches qui pleure .
Eventually continue ,to Pont Naturel, which literally means natural bridge, which is famous because of the natural bridge formed by the powerful waves crashing against the rocks that once stood as a wall and hence created a bridge. The bridge is supported by hanging cliffs on the left and right and offers spectacular views.
Then, a last stop at pointe d'esny , discovering the Shallow cove where you get to see a lot of small colourful boats and clear water around where is alluring and very welcoming.
