Located near Flic-en-Flac on the west coast, roughly a 30–45 minute drive from mid-west resorts and about 45–60 minutes from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam (MRU) International Airport depending on traffic. Best reached by car, taxi or organized tour; limited public transport options. On-site parking is usually available. Inform in advance if you require special accessibility accommodations.
