La Preneuse, La Preneuse
Nestled between Grande Rivière Noire and Tamarin, lies La Preneuse. La Preneuse beach, situated in the Black River district was named after the French battleship, the Preneuse, that fought off the British in the 18th century. A must-see for history buffs, looking onto Le Morne mountain range, The Martello Tower Museum in La Preneuse is a historical landmark and 18th-century British fort.
La Preneuse is an idyllic beachside village for those seeking tranquillity with its quiet streets, lush natural landscape, and spectacular sunsets. This sleepy seaside village is far from the bigger tourist towns' hustle and bustle, and the beautiful Le Morne Brabant mountain overlooks the white sandy beaches.
La Preneuse is a small village in the region so you'll need to travel towards Tamarin (5km), and Flic-en-Flac (16km) to find more developed shopping centres like Cascavelle, Ruisseau Créole, and Barachois Shopping Centres for all your speciality retail needs.
