Bassin Bœuf

Bassin Bœuf is a natural water basin in Sainte-Suzanne where a waterfall drops into the pools below. The site features clear water, smooth stones, and steep rock walls surrounded by lush plants.

The basin has been part of the natural water network of Réunion Island for a long time. Over generations, it became an important landmark and continues to shape the region's landscape and community life.

Local people come here regularly to swim and spend time outdoors with family and friends. The site has become a natural gathering place for those seeking water and shade in the area.

The site is reachable by an easy walk on stone paths and offers safe swimming areas in the basin. Wear water shoes or be careful on wet rocks, as they become slippery in the flow of water.

The basin marks the start of a canyon system that extends downstream from here. Those who follow the river further discover a series of additional waterfalls and deeper pools carved into the gorge.
