About Ile Catherine

Located off the west coast of Rodrigues is Catherine Island, part of the 18 islets of Rodrigues which are sheltered by the vast lagoon. The island’s geography is particular; it is rocky and wild, offering a magnificent view of the Western coast from its peak. Completely deserted, it is a perfect corner to find peace and tranquillity.

About Ile aux Cocos

Ile Aux Cocos, located 4 km to the West of Rodrigues mainland, emerges from the lagoon, creating a strip of sand where thousands of seabirds have sought shelter. When visiting the island, you are sure to encounter various types of birds such as the White terns (Goélettes blanches), the Mascarene paradise flycatcher (Z’oiseaux la vierge), Sooty terns (Yéyé) and Brown noddies (Macouas) amongst others. Certain areas of the island are bird nesting sites and so are off-limits to visitors.
