Grand Port District

Grand Port (Mauritian Creole pronunciation: [ɡʁɑ̃ poː]) is a district of Mauritius, situated in the east of the island.

The district's most well known and popular beach is Blue Bay, one of the finest bathing spots on the island surrounded by a semicircle of filao trees.

Situated on the southeast coast, not far from Mahébourg, Blue Bay offers a fine stretch of white sandy beach, and a deep, clear, light-blue bathing pool.

Just north of Mahebourg, Vallée de Ferney contains indigenous forests and a range of endangered plants and animals.

[2][3] Midlands and Seizième Mille village council areas are geographically in Plaines Wilhems district and have thus not been included in the places found in Grand Port.
