Before you go
What the guide flags for families.
- Anse Vata and the aquarium are the easy family day: a calm beach, shade trees and a short walk to the Aquarium des Lagons. (Kids)
- Îlot Canard is a short boat ride from Anse Vata for snorkelling in calm water; life jackets and reef shoes are a good idea. (Kids)
- The centre's flat pavements suit a stroller, but the market and beaches have steps and sand. (Kids)
