Living in Flic en Flac
The beach sets the pace: swimming in the lagoon, diving on the area's renowned spots, jogging under the filaos, sunset at the end of the day. The village has shops, restaurants and supermarkets, and the Cascavelle shopping centre is a few minutes away by car, as is the Casela nature park.
Tamarin and Black River, with their international schools, are fifteen minutes away; Port Louis is about thirty minutes.
The Flic en Flac property market
Flic en Flac is the most accessible market on the west coast: apartments in residences with pools, often a few steps from the beach, duplexes and village houses. This is where you find the region's entry prices, in R+2 and in recent developments alike.
The rental market is particularly active: the beach attracts year-round tenants as well as medium-term stays, which makes it natural ground for a first rental investment in Mauritius.
Who is it for?
Buyers of a first pied-à-terre in Mauritius, buy-to-let investors who want a property that is easy to rent, and those who want the west coast and its beach without the budget of the Tamarin or Black River estates.
