Starting out with a visit of the last operating salt pans in Mauritius, we continue along the tracks of the ancestors and take a look into Martello Tower, a carefully restored mini-fortress built by the British. The road then leads through the hot and dry south west, right up to S. Anne; a famous place for pilgrims who come from far to worship here. Lunch is enjoyed in an authentic restaurant. We then continue to Baie du Cap, where Matthew Flinders’ tragic tale is depicted in a monument We stop to take a look before visiting the UNESCO Heritage Site at the foot of square basalt mountain Le Morne, Mauritius “landmark mountain”.
