La Marmite de Pocquereux

  • River
Pocquereux, 98880 La Foa
You need to do some driving to reach this lovely little swimming spot, but it’s well worth it.
This peaceful haven used to be on the path connecting the Oua Tom and Oui Poin tribes and gave walkers the opportunity to take a well-earned break. It then became a popular picnic and recreation spot for locals. Nowadays, the many waterholes that form the river (including one shaped like a cooking pot) and all the little waterfalls still attract visitors looking for an idyllic place to rest and maybe swim.
