Oùcécap’s take

Seen from the south of the island, Saint-Denis is the easiest target: from Saint-Pierre, Entre-Deux or Cilaos, aim due north (357°, 357° and 355°); from Saint-Pierre, it is 51 km away. Its centre is the northernmost of all the island’s communes. From Saint-Paul, though, aim north-east, at 53°, 23 km away; and from Saint-Benoît, north-west, at 302°, 33 km away.
