Ready to explore Mauritius beyond the lagoon?

From the seven-coloured earth of Chamarel to hikes up Le Morne, our Mauritius guide points you toward the island's history, food, and outdoor experiences worth the extra day.

The stunning beaches of Mauritius await, on this idyllic island located in the southwestern Indian Ocean within the Mascarene archipelago, northeast of Reunion Island, and surrounded by crystal-clear waters. It's a destination for travellers of all ages and backgrounds — families, friends, couples, or solo travellers alike.

Dive into the Indian Ocean to explore mysterious shipwrecks and vibrant coral reefs, marvelling at the incredible marine life below. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced diver, there is a dive to suit you, and you'll finish the day with a sunset and the warm welcome Mauritians are known for.

The island offers a striking contrast between natural beauty, mountain ranges, coastal plains, and long sandy beaches. Traditional fishing villages like Pointe aux Piments sit alongside more built-up areas like Grand Baie, and a visit to the Pamplemousses botanical garden reveals 85 varieties of palms and many other exotic plants. For a quieter beach, head to the south coast, where St Félix, near the village of Rivière des Galets, is a long curve of creamy white sand shaded by casuarina trees.

Wander through the vibrant streets of Port Louis, where French colonial charm mixes with modern life, and lively markets and artisanal shops are filled with spices and handmade crafts. Île aux Cerfs, a short boat ride from Trou d'Eau Douce on the east coast, is another must-visit, known for its golf course and water sports.

For a more active start to your trip, trek up Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage Site standing at 556 metres — a guided hike of around three to four hours return, rewarded with spectacular views over the island and its surrounding waters. The southwest coast, particularly Tamarin Bay, is a haven for board sports lovers, and kitesurfers will find their own paradise on the waves of the Morne Peninsula.

Whether you're drawn to snorkelling and scuba diving in the island's vibrant underwater world, or simply the tranquil lifestyle framed by turquoise lagoons, Mauritius offers lush landscapes and postcard-perfect views at every turn.
