Le Morne: The Beating Heart of Mauritius

Few kiteboarding destinations can offer as much variety in such a spectacular setting as Le Morne. Inside the lagoon, beginners and freeriders have acres of turquoise water to explore, while beyond the reef, Little Reef, Manawa, and the legendary One Eye provide a natural progression into some of the finest wave riding on the planet. We take a closer look at what makes this corner of Mauritius so special, and why, after countless visits, it remains one of our favourite places to kite.
