The moment you arrive in the Indian Ocean and step foot on Mauritius , you will fall in love with the place. Mauritius is the sugar-cane island of the Indian Ocean.

There is a fantastic choice of golden white beaches to choose from. Surrounded by sandy white beaches and cooled by the flower-scented trade winds, Mauritius is a tropical island paradise.

Mauritius is a diverse tropical island, a mixture of  Indian, French, Creole and Chinese cultural influences.  Mauritius is a beautiful beach holiday destination. The Mauritius tropical landscape is a beautiful mix of jungle-covered mountains, sugar cane fields, waterfalls, and white sand beaches. It was also the island of the dodo, a large, flightless bird whose good-natured simplicity resulted in the poor creature’s total extinction.

Mauritius is truly an island paradise. At Belle Mare there is a beautiful white beach with excellent bathing. Grand Baie offers excellent watersports and the beautiful beach at Le Morne stretches for 4km along the South West peninsula.There are sweeping sands at Palmar and Trou d Eau Douce stretches out to Blue Bay where you can find one of the best bathing areas on the island. There’s Trou aux Biches, with its splendid Hindu temple and travelling further along the coast, Choisy beach is the choice of many holidaymakers to the island.

Here, you can find a selection of water sports. The capital of Mauritius, Port Louis, is bustling with activity during the day but by night it is more laid back with the exception of the Le Caudan Waterfront where there is a casino, shops, bars and restaurants.

Le Morne and Tamarin with their waterfalls are lovely, and popular for surfing. Flic en Flac’s sands are fringed with casuarina trees, and in the southeast, Blue Bay is a popular bathing spot. Don’t miss the little cove of Pereybere either.
