Oùcécap’s take

Sainte-Marie is due north from a whole line running across the island: from Petite-Île (358°, 51 km), from Le Tampon (5°, 42 km) and from Salazie (5°, 15 km). On the coast, it sits almost on the straight line from Saint-Denis to Sainte-Suzanne, between the two. From Saint-Benoît, turn north-west, to 312°, 23 km away.
