Mauritius
The contrast of colours, cultures and tastes makes the island of Mauritius a charming and unforgettable family holiday destination
Mauritius lies in the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. Experience luxury, refinement and no shortage of things to see and do. Take an adventure trail across the rugged mountains or relax at one of the hotel beaches .The capital Port Louis is a buzzing, cosmopolitan city full of culture and French and Indian history including many fine museums, not to mention the oldest racecourse in the Southern Hemisphere.
On the North of the island lies the premier tourist destination of Grand Bay. This area features excursions to the northern islets, nearby beaches at Trou aux Biches and Pereybere, wonderfully maintained tropical gardens and some truly great sunsets. The picturesque villages of Cap Malheureux and Pamplemousses are worth a visit.
Sail out from the bay, go kite surfing at Anse la Raie, go diving from Gunner's Coin and Whale Rock or head to the world famous “One Eye” at Le Morne, for the best waves for surfing. The West is where you’ll find the lush Black River Gorge and where the Piton de la Rivière Noire circles the impressive National Park. Great walks, charming villages and breath-taking sunset views await.
The Eastern coastline is perhaps the most beautiful. Emerald coloured lagoons are punctuated with authentic villages. The impressive Belle Mare beach and the attractive Ile aux Cerfs are great days out and you can swim among the fishes at the Roches Noires volcanic caves and lava tubes.
The wildest and most beautiful landscapes lie in the South. Sandy beaches are bordered by impressive cliffs, rocky shores and panoramic mountains. Blue bay is an exceptional preserved marine park where Parrot-fish and baby barracudas swim amongst the coral just a few metres from the shore.
