Moka is a city on the move where you won’t have time to get bored. In addition to the leisure and other activities available, it enjoys a central location close to the island’s main motorways. In less than 30 minutes by car, you can reach the heights of Chamarel or an idyllic beach in Grand Baie – and indulge in kitesurfing at Le Morne within 1 hour!

Indoor leisure activities

Whether at night or in the rain, there is always plenty to do for children and adults alike in Moka, including shopping centres, indoor sports facilities, bowling, cinema or a kids’ playground. A wide range of activities for every budget.

Outdoor leisure activities

There are well-maintained green areas for a picnic with family and friends as well as public outdoor sports facilities. Get away from the city to take a deep breath of fresh air. Try out paragliding with Hans for breathtaking views of the mountain range and the surroundings. You can also join Keep the Pace’s expert teams for a walk at sunrise or sunset, or even a night under the stars in the Moka Mountains (Le Pouce, Pieter Both, Deux Mamelles, etc.)!

Goune

There is a beautiful stretch of water surrounded by greenery near Le Pouce in Saint Pierre. To reach it, make your way to the foothills of the mountain via the main road, then turn right and let the sound of the water guide you. Goune is well worth the trip to enjoy a swim or relax!
