François Leguat settled at the mouth of Grand Rivière in 1704 primarily for its strategic location and abundant resources. The area offered a sheltered harbor, which was essential for fishing and trade, as well as fertile land for agriculture. Leguat and his companions sought a place where they could establish a sustainable colony and escape the harsh conditions they experienced elsewhere. Additionally, the region's biodiversity intrigued Leguat, who was interested in studying the local flora and fauna.
