    Tips

    Hiking

    Located at an altitude of 1,000 meters, Îlet à Bourse is one of the least frequented villages in the Cirque de Mafate.
    Authentic and peaceful, this islet is home to a dozen families who are keen to share the culture and unique atmosphere of this green setting.

    The islet owes its name to the financial transactions that took place there between wealthy landowners and the “black hunters” who participated in the capture of Maroons who had fled to the Hauts.
