Roads are in a fair condition. The main road runs on a north–south axis.

Bus: Two types of buses operate on the island: urban buses mainly serve the Saint-Denis area; yellow buses connect main towns. Services are excellent, with very comfortable vehicles. Buses stop by request.

Taxis: Taxi ranks can be found in city centres. Taxis can be hired by telephone (telephone numbers can be obtained from the information points at the airport). There are likely to be extra charges after 2000 Mon-Fri, on Sunday and holidays.

Available from the airport and from car hire firms in Saint-Denis. Camper vans can also be hired. Petrol prices are similar to those in France.

Regulations: Speed limits are the same as in France (see France section).
