Discover all the treasures of Reunion Island with the "Zarlor", the special offers designed by the Western France Tourist Office: carefully selected guided outings, leisure activities and sporting and cultural experiences.

Don't hesitate to ask!

This provider takes you to explore lava tunnels, such as the Blue Basin tunnel located at the artisanal village of L'Éperon in the west of the island. After a short climb, you will observe endemic birds nesting here, and discover large rooms with walls covered with magnesite crystals. Two routes are possible: a long crossing of 2.5 km (4-5h), to the less frequented parts of the tunnel, or the discovery (3h) of the narrowest passage (10 m on your knees) where you will learn how lava tunnels are formed.

Cocoboat offers trips at sea in small groups aboard a 9 m unsinkable. The modest size of the boat and its manoeuvrability gives way to more sensations. The two great classics are the cetacean trip and the sunset trip. Comfortably installed on jockey seats, one can easily enjoy the landscapes of the west coast and the different marine species of the Indian Ocean. Attention, the meeting point is fixed 15 minutes before departure directly on the marina, in front of Blue Jet and Gecko Bleu Plongée.

Coco Bike presents itself as the specialist in mountain bike touring and downhill riding. It brings together a team of passionate professionals at your service. But beware of late risers as the departure is in the early morning, around 7:45 am, to be transported by minibus with the equipment to the Maïdo at an altitude of 2,200 m. You will then be able to begin a descent full of sensations and adventures, all according to your level, of course, because there are many trails for novices. For sports enthusiasts, an excellent way to discover the island from another angle.
