Mauritians take great pride in living in harmony and respecting each other's religious beliefs and ethnic traditions.


The warmth of the people in Mauritius is a reflection of the natural beauty and all-encompassing nature of the country. The rich culture and heritage of Mauritius bind the locals together, and they are known for their genuine and welcoming hospitality. Visitors to this friendly country can feel the warmth of the locals at all times.


Mauritius boasts some of the most stunning white coral beaches and crystal-clear lagoons in the world, which contrast beautifully with the distant black volcanic mountains. Mother Nature seems to have used the island's beautiful beaches as a canvas for her blue, white, and crystal-clear paint!


Some of the best beaches to visit in Mauritius are Pelebel Beach, Flicomfrak Beach, Monasan Beach, Bellemare Beach, Blue Bay Beach, and Deer Island Beach. A visit to these beaches is also an excellent opportunity to meet local Mauritian families who come to have picnics on the beach when the weather is nice.


To fully enjoy the different beauties of the north, east, south, and west of Mauritius, it's best to drive along the coast and visit the various beaches. Each region is unique and has many surprises waiting to be discovered. The northern region is flat, with sandy beaches and a pleasant climate, and offers a wide range of interesting activities.


The eastern region has large blue-green lagoons and can be windy, especially in winter. The southern part of the island has pristine, steep cliffs and is a spectacular sight not to be missed. The western and southwestern regions are hot and dry, ideal for surfing, kitesurfing, and other activities.


Mauritius is surrounded by the inviting warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Visitors can take advantage of this water paradise and experience a variety of water sports and activities on the island.


A wide range of water sports is available, including pedal boats, kayaking, water skiing, sea karting, surfing, windsurfing, stand-up paddleboarding, glass bottom boats, catamaran cruises, dolphin watching, and big fishing tournaments. For a more thrilling experience, visitors can also try underwater walking, underwater trips, and paragliding.


Mauritius is known as a diving mecca, with snorkeling available in most lagoons, and visitors can observe the fascinating underwater world from a short distance from the shore. At Blue Bay Nature Reserve, visitors can take a glass-bottom boat into the reserve and then snorkel in the lagoon for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!


If kitesurfing is more your thing, the windiest spots in the southern and eastern regions are worth visiting at any time of the year, or you can choose to visit the northern region at the right time for surfing.


Cultural sites worth visiting include the Government House, the historic Port Louis Theatre, the beautiful Central Post Office, and the courthouse building.


The historic sites of Apravasigat and Mona Mountain, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and the historic route of the old Grand Port are also well worth visiting, with several historical sites such as the Dutch landing site.


If you want to make memories that are different from those of the seaside sites, it's recommended that you change into your walking shoes and explore the rich historical heritage of Mauritius.
