Introducing Centre de Flacq
Centre de Flacq is a world away from picture-postcard Belle Mare and the coast. Here there’s the chaotic bustle you’d expect to find in the east coast’s main settlement, and while there’s nothing much to see or do, it’s well worth an excursion if you’re bored of the beach.

Five kilometres west of Centre de Flacq along the road to Quartier Militaire, the Flacq Union of Estates Limited (FUEL; 413 2583) sugar mill is the largest and most modern on the island. Tours of the plant take place during the cane harvest (July to early November); phone ahead to find out when they run.
