Why use an eSIM in Réunion?
Réunion is a French island in the Indian Ocean known for its active volcano, Piton de la Fournaise, dramatic cirques, and hiking trails. A local Réunion eSIM keeps you connected at local rates during your visit without the expensive roaming fees Canadian carriers charge for Indian Ocean travel.
Common Questions
Does eSIM coverage work across Réunion?
Coverage is generally reliable in Saint-Denis and coastal towns. Remote volcanic and hiking areas may have limited signal.
How much data do I need for a Réunion trip?
A mid-size plan is suitable for most visits, covering navigation, messaging, and travel bookings.
Does a Réunion eSIM work in Mauritius or Madagascar?
No. A Réunion eSIM covers Réunion only. Neighbouring Indian Ocean islands each require their own plan.
Can I keep my Canadian number while using this eSIM?
Yes, but to avoid any roaming charges, turn your Canadian carrier line off entirely in your phone's cellular settings before you land. Disabling data roaming alone isn't enough on its own, so do not use Airplane Mode, as this disables your eSIM too. Use your eSIM for all data, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime, or iMessage for calls and messages. If you need to receive an OTP or two-factor text, turn your Canadian line on briefly, then off again. When you return home, turn it back on and everything returns to normal.
