Great for: Beach, romance, water sports, cuisine, hiking, golf, culture
A vibrant, volcanic island nation, Mauritius is the most popular Indian Ocean island destination. Despite its diminutive size, this slice of East African paradise offers a seemingly endless array of activities that will delight ocean lovers and adrenaline junkies equally as much as cultural enthusiasts and gourmands. Making it the perfect place for a family getaway
Scuba diving, snorkelling and unforgettable sunsets are the hallmarks of Mauritius’ west coast, while upscale resorts with private beaches and perfectly manicured golf courses are the essence of the east. For shopping and cuisine, the north is best, with wild coastlines, forests and waterfalls making up the rest.
