From towering Hindu idols to sprawling sugar plantations to the vibrant Chinese quarter to an amazing array of street food inspired by French, Indian, Chinese and African cuisines, the island is blessed with astounding variety, just begging to be explored.

Mauritius’ beautiful, palm-lined coastline is one of the star attractions of this colourful island. With miles of white sand, wild coves and exotic flowers, it’s perfect for family holidays.

Off the coast of Mauritius, soft whistles resound. Embark from the beaches in pursuit of this fascinating noise. After a few minutes on the waves, the authors of this melody are revealed. It is a school of dolphins that is at the origin of this sea air.

In Mauritius, you sometimes have to take hidden paths to discover unsuspected treasures. In the highlands, at the end of a hectic adventure, lies a jewel in a green setting: the Tamarin waterfalls. Take the gorge path and meander between the trees endemic to the island. As you go along, the sound of the waterfalls intensifies. After a last effort, you reach them. Below them, the natural pools promise a refreshing moment in lush surroundings. Immerse yourself in it and enjoy a well-deserved moment of relaxation.

Island with multiple influences and many mixtures, Mauritius has a rich and unique history. Like its varied landscapes, Mauritius’s heritage impresses with its diversity.
