Boulapanon is a seaside town in the southwestern part of the island of Reunion in the French Overseas Department, between the cities of St. Pierre and St. Louis. An important tourist and fishing town on the island, it is known for its tranquil black sand beaches, traditional Creole architecture and rich marine activities.
The city is situated on the coast of the Indian Ocean and has a tropical maritime climate that is warm and humid throughout the year. Surrounded by volcanic landscapes and sugar cane fields, it creates a unique landscape of mountains and sea, and is a popular starting point for hiking and whale watching.
The local economy is based on fishing, tourism and agriculture and retains a strong Creole cultural tradition. Annual fishermen's festivals and artisanal markets showcase the unique island flavor, and the seafood restaurants near the harbor are a must-see for visitors.
Visitors can experience water sports such as scuba diving and sea fishing, visit the old colonial church, or enjoy the sunset along the coastal walkway. Although small in size, Brapanon is the ideal destination to experience the original island life of Reunion.
