Mauritius is the epitome of a warm welcome. Its white beaches, separating turquoise from emerald in lush vegetation, are dotted with the world’s most exclusive state-of-the-art resorts, surrounded by colours, traditions, and flavours that create a delightful contrast.

But this island has far more to offer than just fabulous beaches. You can lose yourself amidst the cliffs with a sheer drop to the sea, soaring waterfalls with cascades of crystal-clear water, orchards and botanical gardens, and above all the island’s open and courteous people who safeguard an extraordinary creole culture. Lastly, its ideal climate makes Mauritius an outstanding destination for kayakers and windsurfers.
