Excursion

Diving and Snorkelling

A halo of coral surrounds the island of Mauritius creating calm lagoons where you can snorkel from the beach to catch a glimpse of the fish that venture into the shores, but for the best snorkelling, we recommend you take a boat trip out to the reef system itself where you'll be able to swim amongst this underwater city. The eastern coast of Mauritius offers some of the best snorkelling, especially in The Blue Bay Marine Park which has some of Mauritius’ healthiest coral. For those wishing to explore beneath the waters and meet the marine life face-to-face then Mauritius has a plethora of exceptional dive sites, predominantly in the north as it is the best area for accessing the outlying islands and shore-side reef dives. There is also some advanced drift diving on the east side of the island and some okay diving in Flic en Flac in the west. Dives will often feature wall and wreck diving with some unique geology making for interesting underwater canyons and crevices that can be quite fun to swim through. Summer (November - April) is the best time to dive in Mauritius as the visibility is usually great and the warm water brings a higher diversity of sea life. In order to avoid cyclone season (January to March), we recommend diving in Mauritius from October to December and March to April. That being said, the weather at any given time of year shouldn't affect your dive trip.

Excursion

Port Louis Street Food Tour

As the capital city of Mauritius, Port Louis is the centre of the island's economy, politics, culture and more importantly, food. The city’s quarters are a reflection of its eclectic history, with Chinese, Indian, French and Creole sections, each with a distinct architecture. With the criss-cross of food trade culminating from its major harbour coupled with the fresh fruit and vegetables produced from the island, street food in this port city has developed its own unique flavours and styles. Walking through Port Louis with your local guide, you stop at the best food stalls for bite-sized delights, sinking your teeth into a warm roti and taking sips of freshly squeezed juices.

Excursion

Black River Gorges National Park

Located in the southwestern tip of the island, Black River Gorges National Park provides a vast network of walking trails through forested peaks, waterfalls, river and canyons which make up the park. The best time to view the park is during the flowering season between September and January, though the views from the various viewpoints around the park attract visitors year round. The area is home to Mauritius kestrels, pink pigeons (endemic to Mauritius) and echo parakeets, as well as macaque, wild boar and deer, though the latter are less frequently seen. Accessible either as part of a full island day tour or by car, the park delivers an alternative to the beaches and coastal activities elsewhere in the island. Note: if you choose to self-drive, we suggest stopping by the park's visitor centre to get maps, and ideally a guide, who can make the most of your time in the park.

Excursion

Highlights of Chamarel

If you're planning a day trip exploring the island, then including time in Chamarel is a must. Located in the mountains, and acting as a gateway to Black River Gorges National Park, the area is well known for its incredible food and drink offerings. A rich culinary scene offers traditional Mauritian dishes, including highlights such as octopus rougaille and curries, accompanied by rotis, samosas and palm-heart salads. The best-known attraction of the area is the Chamarel Rum Distillery, which offers guided tours, and slightly further out you can view the colourful sand formations at Terres de 7 Couleurs on the way to the picturesque Chamarel waterfall.

Excursion

Golf in Mauritius

Mauritius is a popular golf destination and rightly so with ten golf courses each one unique in its design, setting and technical specificities. Most have been designed by renowned professional golfers such as Rodney Wright or Ernie Els and what makes them even more exceptional is their location with some nestled in the heart of lush nature, between mountain and sea, such as Heritage Golf Club in Bel Ombre, ranking among the best golf courses in the Indian Ocean, whilst other courses constantly remind you that you are on a tropical island like the Ile aux Cerfs Golf Club, set on a paradise islet with beautiful sandy beaches. Some hotel resorts even have their own golf courses such as the Legends and Links courses attached to the Constance Belle Mare Plage, so you can easily combine lying on the beach with playing a round of golf.
