Îlot Mangenie, Private peninsula in Flacq District, Mauritius
The peninsula extends into the Indian Ocean with white sand beaches and clear waters protected by an offshore coral reef.
In the early 1900s, sugarcane farmer Henri Wiehé established the first five rooms on the peninsula, initiating its transformation into a resort destination.
The peninsula maintains strong connections to Mauritian maritime traditions through local fishing practices and marine-based activities along its shores.
Visitors reach the peninsula via speedboat service that operates every twenty minutes from the mainland until five in the evening.
The peninsula features an inland jungle where guests explore using electric fat-tire bicycles through maintained nature paths.
