Cap Malheureux is a village located in the north extremity of the island, it is very famous on photographs and post cards with its red roofed church. ‘Cape Misfortune’ (thus named for the number of ships that foundered on the rocks here) is a place of great historical importance for Mauritius: it was here that the British invasion force finally defeated the French in 1810 and took over the island.
