Macondé viewpoint
Baie du Cap · Savanne
Macondé viewpoint is at Baie du Cap, a small village in the south-west, close to the foot of Le Morne. It stands on the peak of a small rocky cliff jutting out of the land.
What sets it apart
A narrow staircase leads to the top of the rock. From there the view takes in the sea and the surrounding countryside. At its foot runs the Macondé road, the B9, which hugs the shore for some forty kilometres between Souillac and Grande Rivière Noire: the sea on one side, wild vegetation and mountains on the other.
Highlights
- A rock jutting out above the sea
- A narrow staircase to the top
- The view over the sea and the countryside of Baie du Cap
- The B9 coast road, between sea and mountains
Good to know
- The wind can be strong near the top: keep back from the edge.
- La Prairie beach, long and covered in a mix of sand and grass, is a little further north.
Getting there
The rock stands beside the B9 coast road, at Baie du Cap. It is climbed by a narrow staircase.
