Situated opposite Gabriel Island, with which it forms a lagoon, Plate Island is as hilly as Gabriel Island is flat. It is also less popular, as the big catamarans are not allowed to dump their flocks of Fridays on it. An active lighthouse dating from 1851 dominates its highest hill offering, from its promontory, a superb panorama of the other islets and the coast. A historical landmark, the island was once used as a quarantine station to protect Mauritius from epidemics. It still has the ruins of old buildings, such as Governor's House which has been transformed into an exclusive beach restaurant.
