La Réunion is a picturesque island nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar and approximately 175 kilometers southwest of Mauritius. As a French overseas department, this remote destination boasts a unique fusion of French influence and vibrant Creole culture. Known for its lush, diverse landscapes, La Réunion is home to pristine beaches, verdant forests, towering mountains, including the active volcano Piton de la Fournaise, and striking cirques created from eroded shield volcanoes. La Réunion also prides itself on its Reunionese cuisine, a delightful mix of Creole, Indian, African, and French culinary styles. One can explore the welcoming seaside towns, indulge in various adventurous activities such as hiking, reef diving, surfing, or simply relish the island's endemic flora and fauna in its expansive national park.

Amazing place to stay!
Wonderful people and nice trails to do and beautiful beaches to see.
I've been traveling for 15 days and I travelled on the island discovering the cities and the beautiful places.

La Réunion is a fantastic place for those who love hiking! The three cirques and the volcan create breathtaking scenery, the food is excellent and you can even enjoy some nice beaches to the west. The people are very open and friendly: there is no rush here.
