Description
Port-Louis bay in Mauritius.
It was from this bay that sugar was sent to United Kingdom, Canada... Moutains protect the harbour against the cyclons. The harbour was named in memory of the French King Louis XIV, who leaded the Compagnie des Indes Orientales which takes possession of the island in 1715.
