Holidays in Mauritius

In the former fishing village of Flic en Flac, indulge in pure relaxation. Lounge on the beach, wander through the picturesque neighbouring town of Tamarin, or savour delicious Creole specialities. Flic en Flac serves as an excellent base for your dream holiday in Mauritius. 

Grand Baie is a favourite holiday spot with some of the best hotels in Mauritius, stunning beaches, and thrilling water sports. In the evening, clubs, bars, and restaurants offer a vibrant nightlife. 

For a peaceful, charming, and exclusive experience, Belle Mare is the perfect choice. The area has fewer developments and offers a refined selection of hotels and restaurants. Golfing, diving, and snorkelling away from the crowds are especially enjoyable here. 

The Chamarel Geopark in southern Mauritius is mesmerising with its "seven-coloured earth," showcasing red, brown, purple, and blue sand dunes. Once you’re done marvelling at the volcanic landscapes, check out the famous waterfall and explore the hiking trails. 

On the 650-metre-high dormant volcano Trou aux Cerfs, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views over Mauritius. A lush green forest surrounds the 300-metre-wide crater. The car-free road is perfect for leisurely strolls or jogging.

The Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, officially known as Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden, houses numerous tropical plants. From giant water lilies to exotic palms, there are plenty of natural beauties to discover. 

Amidst mountainous rainforests, you’ll encounter rare plants and animals like the Mauritius kestrel in the Black River Gorges National Park. This natural gem boasts hiking trails, waterfalls like Mare Aux Joncs and Alexandra Falls, and the island's highest peak, Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire. 

Flic en Flac, the longest sandy beach in Mauritius, attracts tourists and locals with palms and a coral reef. Swimming, snorkelling, and relaxing are the main activities here. Under a bamboo umbrella, you can enjoy the view of Le Morne Brabant mountain and the crystal-clear Indian Ocean. 

Snow-white beaches and turquoise lagoons – that’s Le Morne. The wind conditions make the beach a hotspot for surfing and kiting. The shallow water is perfect for families and non-swimmers. Snorkelers will love the colourful coral reefs. 

Glittering white sand, lush palms, and peaceful tranquillity. If you’re longing for some quiet and the chance to completely unwind, Belle Mare Beach is perfect. This is the place to switch-off or just daydream. 

In addition to the heavenly stretch of beach, the Blue Bay Marine Park is a highlight. In this protected marine area, you’ll get up close and personal with Mauritius’s underwater world. Among butterflyfish, clownfish, and a colourful coral garden, you’ll create unforgettable memories.
