Getting there

MRU → La Gaulette → Kite Lagoon

56 km · ~1h 15

MRU is on the southeast corner of the island; Le Morne is the far southwest, an hour and a quarter away (more at rush hour). Most riders stay in La Gaulette, the village ten minutes up the coast, or at a resort on the peninsula itself. The Kite Lagoon is beside the public beach car park.

Rental car

Near-essential unless you're staying at a beachfront resort. Driving is on the left; rental desks often ask for an International Driving Permit — bring one.

Taxi

Official stand outside arrivals with regulated fares — ask to see the fare card.

Transfer

Pre-booked transfers and hotel pickups; several advertise room for kite gear.
