About this spot

Dragon Island

Île du Dragon is a small rocky island in the lagoon reachable at low tide, a favourite half-day trip combining flat water, oysters and desert light.

Local conditions

  • Trip is tide-dependent — plan around calm morning hours
  • Wind picks up sharply in the afternoon, which affects boat crossings
  • Great sunset light: golden hour times below are the ones photographers use
