Bouloupari can be explored with different travel interests in mind. Golf, water activities, cycling, beach destinations and distillation each offer their own highlights. The golf course’s measurements, the conditions for swimming and the distillery’s reservation-only offerings are particularly specific. These distinctions help you consider your reason for travelling alongside the preparations you will need to make.

Golf and cycling

Golf de la Ouenghi in Bouloupari has an 18-hole course measuring 6,151 metres. These details give the golf course a clear profile if you want to plan a trip around a sporting activity. Another cycling connection is the Ouenghi Sport Aventure club, which brings together people interested in mountain biking, road cycling and enduro. The facts answer different questions when choosing: the measurements describe the course, while the three disciplines show the breadth of the club’s connection to cycling.

River and lagoon

The Rivière de la Ouenghi offers opportunities for swimming, kayaking and enjoying nature. The river is publicly accessible in the municipality of Bouloupari; swimming depends on the water level, and the swimming area is not supervised. Boat trips on the lagoon, as well as diving and snorkelling, are also available in Bouloupari. This lets you distinguish between river activities and lagoon offerings: when swimming in the river, take into account the water level and the lack of supervision; the lagoon offers different water activities, including boat trips, diving and snorkelling.

Beaches: length, surroundings and marina

Specific features also help you assess the beach destinations. Plage de Bouraké is about 500 metres long and lined by a long row of palm trees; it can be reached from the northern exit of Bouloupari. Plage de Tomo has brown sand and landscaped areas along the edges with farés and barbecue facilities. Port Ouenghi is known as a destination with a beach and marina. To compare them, you can consider Bouraké’s approximate length and palm trees, the features along the edge of Tomo’s beach, or the combination of a beach and marina at Port Ouenghi. These details distinguish the destinations rather than presenting them simply as interchangeable beach destinations.

Bridge and distillery

The Pont de la Ouenghi in Bouloupari is the only structure in Oceania recognised by the Association des descendants de Gustave Eiffel. This recognition makes the bridge a cultural point of interest alongside sport, water and beaches. Near Bouloupari, Distillerie de Boulouparis offers tastings of selected products and tours of the workshops, where the distillation process is explained, by prior reservation. You can choose between a product-focused visit and a workshop visit centred on the distillation process. Both offerings require advance reservations.
