eSIM Guide for Réunion
Your eSIM connects to major carriers in Réunion:
Available networks: 5G
Réunion is a French overseas department in the Indian Ocean — a volcanic island of dramatic extremes, with the active Piton de la Fournaise volcano (one of the world's most active), the Cirques (the three spectacular caldera basins of Mafate, Cilaos, and Salazie), and some of the world's best hiking trails. Orange provides 4G and 5G coverage across the coast and accessible areas, and as an EU overseas department, all EU digital services work normally. Data is essential for tracking Piton de la Fournaise's eruption status (the volcano erupts 2–3 times per year), navigating the Cirque de Mafate trails (accessible only on foot or helicopter), and using the Réunion trail website for GR R1/R2 trekking permits.
Orange's 4G/5G covers the coastal towns — Saint-Denis (the capital), Saint-Pierre, Saint-Paul, Saint-Gilles, and Le Tampon. The Route du Volcan (the main road to the Piton de la Fournaise caldera rim) has coverage at the Pas de Bellecombe viewpoint. The volcano crater has no mobile coverage.
The Cirque de Cilaos (accessible by the dramatic Route de Cilaos with 400+ bends) has coverage in Cilaos town. The Cirque de Salazie has coverage in Hell-Bourg village. The Cirque de Mafate has NO roads — it is only accessible on foot or by helicopter. Mafate has no mobile coverage except at the very edge near Roche Plate.
The GR R1 and GR R2 long-distance routes traverse the interior — high passes like Col du Taïbit and Col du Cœur have no coverage. The Piton des Neiges (3,070m — the highest point in the Indian Ocean) has no coverage near the summit.
Réunion uses the Euro. French is the official language. Réunionnais Creole is widely spoken. The island is renowned for its multi-ethnic culinary scene (Creole, Indian, Chinese, French).
