Ile aux Vacoas - Mauritius South East
 

The third island in the southern chain, Ile aux Vacoas is tiny compared to the others. It has a rather nice beach though, where the boats of Lagoon Harmony stop for their lunch; providing their guests with a “private beach” experience. Its other side is very rugged and sharp corals stick out of the ground which is thrashed by the waves of the open Ocean, walk cautiously and keep watching those waves when exploring.
The lizard-like inhabitants of the island are relatives of the extremely rare Telfair skink and exist exclusively on Mauritius. Despite their appearance, skinks are rather “snakes with legs”, but there’s no need to worry as they do not bite, are not poisonous and come out of their hiding places only to share lunch with the visitors.
