Flic En Flac is located on the west coast of Mauritius and was once a small village with its only claim to fame a really long beach and a beautiful lagoon. There were few tourists to Mauritius in the 60s and trade not tourism was its main feature. That is until the 70s when the price of sugar rose and created an economic boom to the country. Many more people could now afford the luxury of a bungalow on the coast. The west coast of Mauritius developed much slower than the northwest side, but villages such a Flic en Flac have slowly grown into small towns. Unfortunately no thought was given to taste or conformity, although it offers good accommodation and caters for tourists the overall effect is mediocre. During the rainy season flooding has become a regular occurrence especially in the rainy season.
