Trou d'argent Beach, Beach in Rodrigues, Mauritius
The Trou d'Argent Beach features three connected coves surrounded by rocky cliffs, with soft white sand stretching along the curved shoreline.
The beach received its name, meaning Silver Hole, from early settlers who discovered the natural inlet formations along the eastern coast of Rodrigues.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing methods in the waters near Trou d'Argent Beach, using small boats and nets to catch fresh seafood.
Access to the beach requires a two-hour walk through natural paths, and visitors should bring water, sun protection, and comfortable walking shoes.
The three separate coves of Trou d'Argent Beach create natural swimming pools at different tide levels, each offering distinct water conditions.
