St Leu beach

The charming beach of St Leu, located near the center, in the southeast of Réunion, is overcrowded with tourists, especially on weekends.

The beach is divided into two parts by coral reefs. Lifeguards are on duty here, there are amenities for recreation with children, rent of umbrellas and deck chairs. Holidaymakers are recommended to always stay on the left side of the beach.
