Saint Francois Guide

What is there to do in Saint Francois?

Glorious green mountains dominate the landscape, engulfing the modern apartment blocks and picturesque town centre. The breathtaking views from the quaint cottages alone make the visit to Saint Francois worthwhile, and when you can embark on a leisurely stroll across the stunning landscape it becomes even more alluring. Walk across the sandy beaches in the height of summer and you’ll feel like you’re in a tropical paradise; palm trees grace the shoreline and azure blue waters stretch out across the horizon. Even at peak times of tourism, the beaches remain fairly empty so you can find a space to lay down your towel and bask in the glorious sunshine. The terrain lends itself to challenging walks, but there is plenty of activity around the coastline. Snorkelling and scuba diving are popular with tourists and visitors alike; exotic sea life resides at the bed of the ocean, just waiting to be explored. For a more relaxed adventure, there are companies supplying boat tours that showcase the stunning environment and present the chance to rejoice in the fresh sea air.
