The first national marine park to be established in the Indian Ocean, the Sainte Anne Marine National Park consists of eight small islands. Most of the islands boast at least one luxurious resort or hotel, but several are home to only seabirds, other wildlife, and perhaps a ranger to collect an entrance fee from tourists. The colorful coral gardens in the water surrounding the islands are home to a variety of exotic tropical fish, and they can be explored by SCUBA diving, snorkeling, and glass-bottom boat tour. Several excellent Creole restaurants can be found on Ste Anne, the largest island in the park.
