Wharf of the former « Mine des Japonais »
This mine was operated by the Japanese until the Second World War and closed after Pearl Harbor. The Japanese were expelled and some were interned. The remains are impressive. All that remains here are concrete columns that once supported drainage pipes leading down to the beach, along with completely rusted conveyor belts ending their run on the shore. Up there, on the mountain, more than 1,500 people once worked to extract the ore. (Source: Le Petit Futé)
