Belle Mare is a 10-km sweep of white sand on the east coast, shaded by casuarinas and lined by big resorts (but with long public sections). The lagoon is wide and turquoise, and in summer the sea is flat and warm.
It's a long drive from the villa (about 1h30), so combine it with Île aux Cerfs or a night on the east coast.
