Reunion

Réunion Island is an overseas territory of France. Volcanic in origin, the terrain is forested and rugged. Volcano Piton de la Fournaise, the most famous volcano on the island, also ranks as one of the most active in the world. Piton des Neiges is the highest peak on land rising an impressive 3069m above sea level. Le Maïdo offers one of the best viewpoints on the island, including views of the Cirque de Mafate. The mountainous terrain makes the area excellent for mountain biking and canyoning, though the beach scene on the other hand is underdeveloped.

Ile de la Reunion, Reunion

Aight, As soon as you get off the plane, you'll meet many kind and great people! They will ask you straight to go get a drink at their own place! It's amazing! The island is really pretty! Volcano, beaches, different kind of animals, and the food is just great. Pay attention, cause really spicy but with a awesome taste! Enjoy

Saint-Leu, Reunion

Fabuleuses plages mais attention aux oursins dans le lagon ! Pour ceux et celles qui souffrent d'arachnophobie, une espèce d'araignées d'assez bonne taille et tigrée domine !

8. Erwan's Tip on La Plaine des Palmistes

La Plaine des Palmistes, Reunion

Si le temps parait couvert depuis le littoral, ne pas s'y fier la plaine des palmistes est à faire dans les deux sens vers Saint BENOIT et au retour. Un superbe point de vue entre cirque de Cilaos d'un côté et La Fournaise à droit (ou inversement selon le trajet) : Le week-end attention la route est chargée car des bus amènent population locale à la Boite "LA SOUCOUPE VOLANTE" (véridique!) et il y a un monde fou, là, au milieu de nulle part ! EXCELLENT
