The story

Trou d'Eau Douce Jazz and Kreol Night in Trou d'Eau Douce

Trou d'Eau Douce, a fishing village turned resort town on Mauritius's east coast and gateway to the Ile aux Cerfs boat trips, hosts an evening event pairing jazz music with Kreol cultural performance. The town's mix of working fishing harbour and nearby luxury resort development, including the Anahita estate, gives the event a setting that bridges local community life and Mauritius's high-end tourism sector.

Trou d'Eau Douce sits on Mauritius's east coast, a town whose name, meaning hole of fresh water, refers to a natural freshwater spring once used by passing ships.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Trou d'Eau Douce occupies a distinctive position in Mauritius's east coast tourism geography: still a functioning fishing village with its own boats and harbour life, yet immediately adjacent to significant resort development, including the Anahita golf and residential estate, and serving as the main departure point for boat trips to the popular Ile aux Cerfs islet

02

The mystery stays covered

An evening pairing jazz with Kreol cultural performance would plausibly draw on this dual identity, offering a more intimate, community-adjacent alternative to Mauritius's larger, more institutionally organised jazz festival, MAMA JAZ, based in Port Louis
