Italian term or phrase: alvei di piena
Se è il clima ciò che fa di Mauritius una meta perfetta per le vacanze in ogni stagione, è The Legend a proclamarla una destinazione golfistica fin dalla sua apertura, nel gennaio del 1994. Il primo dei due percorsi del resort Constance Belle Mare Plage (il secondo, aperto nel 2002, è il Links) venne disegnato da Hugh Baiocchi, il campione sudafricano che lo progettò su 70 ettari al centro di un’antica riserva di cervi. In alcune aree il percorso è stato scavato nelle rocce vulcaniche ricoperte da cespugli, mentre in altre si addentra in alvei di piena.
