wow what a beautiful day for a drive we're going from Point Aux Piments all the way to Trou Aux Biches yeah start
yeah we're gonna start from here Point Aux Piments village de la bon humeur maybe that means good humour yeah
so this is the road going in kind of fitting that it's bon humour because they were they used to have
a vampire baby so yes and it is halloween i mean you guys aren't watching this on halloween but
it's appropriate that we've got a vampire baby here yeah now this is one of those weird roads
that it does this uh steps they like steps when you look at them from google maps they've got a
whole bunch of steps that you keep doing these 90 turns it's bends s-bends well not yes it's
it's most like steps you do a 90-degree and then you do another 90-degree yeah yes i suppose we'll
go with s but anyway so this is the village somewhere here there's a vampire baby well 2007
i think it was but yeah another story for another time classic case of broken telephone sent the
village into a frenzy but it is a beautiful day it is perfect i mean can you guys see the blue skies
well we're going through a little bit of beautiful foliage here and these shops it's a lovely little
village as well it is quite nice and this is the back end of it remember Point Aux Piments is famous for
its beach but don't forget to come out here yeah no the town is actually quite nice we have quite
a few food places and little convenience stores and palm trees and great places where you can stay
and there's a chiminini yeah there's a chimney uh beau rivets oh this is margarita this is a
really nice looking uh margarita it was cheap it's like 30 euros a night or something and
yeah it's a snack shop across there but you see a lot of these little snack shops they weren't open
literally a month ago yeah and now they're opening super cool a nice little convenience store and
then if you turn to the left here there's two big resorts the Meridian i think and the Beachcomber
one of the Beachcombers yeah down that road so if you're coming from one of those you'll start here
and this is where you'll be coming down and we're about to turn the sea is right ahead of us
yeah you can probably make up that gorgeous blue sea in the fish landing zone i'm going to slow it
down even though there's a guy behind me so that you can get a bit of the the beautifulness that is
the ocean Point Aux Piments public beach i'm sure Riki will point you out the window a lot down here but
it is important that you see the road here because look at all the snack shops that are open now on
both sides of the road oh a guy's going to have a grill you can smell it can you smell that they're
going to have a daytime grill that's very unheard of and mauritius they're normally for the evening
yeah but i think as we head to summer we'll get more daytime sunsets lovely delicious delicious
foods we did a panini there i actually put a card up for you guys yeah you can actually see
when we actually ate their panini during almost just after lunchtime so it's super cool because
you grab your panini and you get to eat it at the beach right there at the beach super cool
on a plate and everything and then you just go take it back yeah more little uh shops and but
lots of little food places last time we were here there was no one here and now look at it yeah it's
literally full i don't know if Riki well i don't know if you guys can see the people there let me
show you the sea quickly because we're about to lose it and to some shopping we'll come back again
sorry sorry guys wind okay so now we're getting into more uh the residential area where it's
between the seas a little bit these places must be really nice Sunset Reef because they're right
on the beach so you've got your apartment right on the reef right on the reef because there's
reef i'm thinking about the reef up ahead oh sorry for the wobbles so it's a little bit of a wild sea
here it is it's quite cool but we're going to turn sharply away from the sea now the shrine and then
you've got some great places for shade but this isn't a place where you're coming to the beach
this is a place where fishermen actually come and they fish off these rocks because
because you can fish here quite gnarly it is it's wild it's a wild sea you can
snorkel i've heard you can snorkel here but yeah i wouldn't i wouldn't risk that
yeah and then if you go straight here well it's not straight it's more like a bend
you're going to triole on the japanese road yeah not sure why it's called the japanese road i think
they built it probably that would so that's the japanese road up ahead but we're turning here
to keep on the coastal road postage stamps how awesome is that cool
and then there's a seafood restaurant nice seafood restaurant right next to what used to be the
aquarium it looks like it's still closed but there used to be a store in aquarium they've now got a
new aquarium a big fancy one in port louis so this one doesn't look too open it doesn't look like it
doesn't actually maybe they're not opening again i don't know but guys let us know in the comments
if there's someone if they get if you part of the aquarium let us know if you have me again
woah stopping truck in the middle of the road oncoming traffic that's what's going
to happen on this road oh this must be like a Veranda or something this looks like a fancy
hotel a Recif Attitude oh it's an Attitude not a Veranda Attitude that's what i meant
so back onto the road now along here excuse the truck there there's a lot of beach a lot
of beachfront yes it's all under it's very much like Mont Choisy beach it's got all this
stuff but no one ever comes here and i say that look at all these people that are here
there is there's not much food or public toilets that i can but look at them having a picnic yeah
bring your own bring your own they've got it wow someone's actually catering that that is awesome
yeah that is cool and more so okay it is a little bit more secluded and private here so you can come
and bring out your tables and chairs and have your barbecue or or get one of the shops just that we
just passed to come and deliver to someone's food smells so nice oh wow there's good thing there's
no smell-o-vision on this yeah you guys are lucky oh look there is a public toilet all the way down
here okay so if yeah if you want a public toilet there is one now we're gonna head back in away
from the sea on our way in a northerly direction we are heading north yes now there are a lot more
of the resorts here when you pull away from the beach it means resorts are on the beach
there yeah resorts on the beach and you've been detoured and you've been detoured around them
but you get to see them from this side so this is actually a recreation center yeah wow there you go
yes also there was like an elderly elderly care home or something as well okay yeah joggers
no not at this time of day though oh it's too hot wow White Oak Villas don't know about those but
they're those catering beachfront self catering so that's pretty good so you got beachfront
Le Skipper this is a fantastic fabulous restaurant really nice over the sea and we're going into
Trou Aux Biches but the sign is really bleached up so maybe this is not real Trou Aux Biches everybody
welcome to possibly possibly design was not good it does sort of blur between this is the Veranda
this is the Veranda Veranda hotel so Veranda Point Aux Biches because it's blurry between
Point Aux Piments Point Aux Biches and Trou Aux Biches that's gonna be lovely on the subtitles yeah there we go
google translate i'm going to translate auto subtitles subtitle Plage Blue we just
passed which is also a resort type thing Syndra's snack it looks quite beautiful oh
it does it looks really nice Ocean Heaven looks like massage and you got some villas down the
road a little bit i'm not sure how you'd get to the beach through all these villas and houses
yeah so staying in a villa here on the wrong side of the road would not make sense yeah i
don't know how you would actually get to the beach it's going to be quite a long walk there's usually
little sneaky pathways but i don't see any here oh no it looks like there's a parking there i think
you could probably go you just pass there sorry we stuck behind this truck for a little bit but have
a look wood-fired pizza oven oh yeah so that looks quite nice uh wood oven pizza okay i'll go after
this car they just they there's a bump up the head but the guys aren't slowing down for it so yeah
Atera i'm not sure what Atera is ah cool more um oh wow did you guys see that
oh wow they come really fast on here but he knew where i was
so hitting more this is more like what i would say was residential yeah i mean they do have these wow
look at that the beach is still literally right next to us yeah it is i don't see a Diamond Blue
apartment wow it's quite big that guy looks like he's going down he knows where the road is there
speed bump oh no he's just going into it yes you can you can sneaky right down there yeah
it's always a problem i find with Trou Aux Biches apart from the main public beach everything else looks a
bit blocked up i was a little bit disappointed the first time we drove through Trou Aux Biches yes
because there's no beach right oh yeah i was expecting more like Mont Choisy or something
but but wait till we turn this corner back looking back there back again oh and fisherman
nah yeah he's standing quite deep out there but it's not deep it's quite far but shallow
so this is quite a wild beach you can see it's rocky and stuff and the waves are coming and
it looks like the reef is very shallow here yeah you see some guys scuba diving out there
it's beautiful uh bus up ahead and speed bump and all things colliding
and the road is narrow the road is really narrow and it drops right off look how beautiful that
beach is up ahead lovely oh wow that's got to be that really fancy Beachcomber or whatever it
is that big resort that's there yes we'll see in a minute but now we're going into i think
this is Trou Aux Biches but i'm still not 100% sure yet yeah i haven't seen a sign but they've got some
nice looking restaurants on the side with beach beach views that had a really great beach view
yeah that's actually looking like the tables and chairs and everything with tables and chairs
that's really great super cool but what's really cool is that we drove this literally
three four months ago yeah nothing was open it was like we had just driven into a a ghost town
yeah but now look at it yeah okay so this looks more this is more what i expected to see
nothing for miles all these walls walled off yeah so that is gonna happen that is a bus
stop there now there's parking here a lot of parking here for no apparent reason yeah that
is odd i find it very odd that there's tons and tons of parking and there is uh a pizza place
that's quite a big pizza place oh there's a shopping shopping center Popos supermarket okay so
where everyone from Trou Aux Biches can get their shopping right so it's not like a Winners or anything it's
a Popo welcome to Popo yeah and then along yes now now we're starting to get the the resorts
again yeah these fancy this is Sakura and but a lot of these they do actually have a hotel uh
a restaurant inside that you can go in and visit so each restaurant
this is uh you can't go there it says private but it's not private you can't actually go there okay
it's private unless you're eating something yeah there you go who are having a drink or
something now apparently around here somewhere Chinese Palace China Palace China Palace oh yeah
we almost come there sometimes this is it i think we've we've arrived yeah we have this is it we've
actually arrived this is Trou Aux Biches the end of Trou Aux Biches ahead is the big big Beachcomber and
down here is the beach beach where nice did you see this oh we're going to go over a cliff hang
on everyone we're going to try and head to the sea down this bad road there's a post office here
ice cream that they've got some vendors on the side now apparently one of these places you can
actually come in one of the the places on the edge here yeah i'm not sure because this is national
coast guard so okay so this is probably the coast guard probably down that weird road so no one's
allowed here but authorized people so i'm just going to stop here and this is where we'll end
i'll take you on to the beach for a second and there you go awesome welcome to Trou Aux Biches beach
well here we are Trou Aux Biches beach right behind us there we made it all the way
it was a fantastic drive well anyway everyone thanks for watching and we'll see you next time
