About Tamarin Public Beach

Tamarin Beach, on the west coast of Mauritius, is famous for its cool, laid-back vibe, surf culture (great for beginners!), stunning sunsets, and the chance to see dolphins. Located on the west coast of Mauritius, this beach attracts people who prefer space, movement, and natural views over deck chairs and beach clubs. Tamarin Beach feels honest. No polished setups, no loud crowds, just open sea, black sand, and a wide sky that changes colour through the day. The waves here are stronger than on the East Coast, which makes it popular with surfers and people who enjoy watching the ocean in motion.


Tamarin stand out in how real it feels. Locals jog along the shore, surfers ride the waves, and families gather without fuss. Many travellers who plan relaxed island trips through Mauritius tour packages end up appreciating Tamarin for this exact reason; it shows a side of the island that feels lived-in, not staged. If you are tired of crowded resort beaches, this one gives you room to breathe and slow down.
