Grand Bassin must make part of your excursions, it is interesting for its legend, Grand Bassin is considered as a sacred lake. It is said that the water inside the crater communicates with the waters of the holy Ganges of India. So the Hindus from the Island declared the Grand Bassin as a Holy lake. Since then the hindu community perform a pilgrimage every year on the Maha Sivaratri “Siva’s Great Night”,on this day they will honor the Lord Siva. Usually it is celebrated on the thirteenth day of the dark half of the passage of the moon in the month of Maasi (February or March).
