Frequently Asked Questions

Location of Mauritius Island

Mauritius stands as a picturesque island nestled in the Indian Ocean, situated just off the African coast. Renowned for its stunning beaches, vibrant lagoons, and captivating coral reefs, the island boasts enchanting landscapes, ranging from the majestic Black River Gorges National Park to the imposing Lion Mountain. Whether exploring the vibrant capital, Port Louis, stepping into history at Eureka plantation house, or marveling at the 18th-century Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden, Mauritius offers a wealth of experiences.

Ideal Holiday Destination

Mauritius proves to be a top-notch destination, known for its safety and hospitality. Beyond its sun-kissed climate and breathtaking views, the island is celebrated for its warm and welcoming locals who extend friendliness to tourists.

Best Time to Visit Mauritius

The best time to experience Mauritius is from April to June or September to December, just outside the peak tourist seasons. This allows for a more tranquil holiday with fewer crowds, serene beaches, and attractive pricing. Nevertheless, Mauritius enjoys sunshine and pleasant temperatures throughout the year. During the Mauritian summer (October to April), temperatures hover around 25-30°C, while winter (May-September) offers a comfortable 22°C with ideal winds for kitesurfers and windsurfers, albeit heavier rainfall in February and March.

Traveling Across Mauritius

Traveling across Mauritius is a breeze. A well-established bus service operates with major hubs in Port Louis, Curepipe, Quatre Bornes, Flacq, and Mahébourg. Opting for a rental car is an excellent way to explore the island, but Mauritius is also highly conducive to cycling.

Currency in Mauritius

The island uses the Mauritian rupee, which is subdivided into 100 cents. There are exchange bureaus in the airport, and ATMs also accept credit cards and occasionally debit cards.

Size of Mauritius Island

The island of Mauritius is just over 60km in length and less than 50km across, spanning 2,040km² (790 square miles). This is the same size as the whole of the Cotswolds. It also has an exclusive economic zone covering 2,300,000km² (670,000 square nautical miles).

Sea Surrounding Mauritius

Mauritius is situated in the Indian Ocean, sharing its marine expanse with other paradises like the Maldives and Seychelles.

Capital of Mauritius

Port Louis is the capital of Mauritius, celebrated for its colonial architecture and the 19th-century Champ de Mars horse-racing track. Visitors can explore Caudan Waterfront for shopping, immerse themselves in the aromatic spices at Central Market, and delve into the island's history at the Blue Penny Museum. Art enthusiasts can appreciate the street art in China Town, concluding the evening with a touch of luck at the glitzy casino in Caudan Waterfront.

More information about Mauritius

An island nation, deep in the Indian Ocean , Mauritius , a tropical paradise of palm-fringed beaches and lush mountains, has long been a favourite travel destination. Known as the ‘Island of Eden’ , its heavenly beaches are a honeymooners paradise. Beyond the charms of the coastline, vibrant cities, such as the capital of Port Louis , are cultural melting pots, home to colonial-era markets, temples and restaurants serving cuisine as diverse as the island’s population. On a holiday to Mauritius , you’ll want to explore the entire island.

Whilst on the east coast, you can find plenty of sleepy fishing villages and quiet beaches, the west coast is home to a rich array of natural attractions such as the iconic Le Morne Brabant Mountain, Chamarel’s ‘Land of Seven Colours’ . It’s also on the west coast from which many dolphin-spotting cruises depart. Known for its rich biodiversity, Mauritius was once famously home to the now extinct Dodo , but today the Central Plateau is where you’ll find many rare plant and animal species in its lush tropical habitat.

A mix of African, Asian and Arabic cultures fuse beautifully to make a trip to Mauritius a diverse and unique travel experience. No matter how inviting the white-sand beaches of the coastline are, a holiday to Mauritius is incomplete without contemplating its colourful cities, rich natural wonders and epic biodiversity.

History of Mauritius

Mauritius is characterised by its diverse and varied history, with several different European powers colonising the island over the centuries, due to its location on the Indian Ocean naval trade routes. The first mention of this African island was by Arab explorers, who named it ‘Desert Island’ in around the 10th-century. Portuguese explorers sighted the island in around 1507, although did not settle it, instead, choosing to use it as a port of call for valuable food and resources along their trade routes. Mauritius was given its present name when the Dutch began exploring the island in the 17th-century , with settlements springing up in the 1630s.

The Dutch were concerned with gathering the precious natural resources on the island such as ebony wood and ambergris, a substance used to make expensive perfume. Due to less than optimal conditions for agriculture to thrive on the island, the Dutch abandoned Mauritius by the beginning of the 18th-century. Shortly thereafter, the island was settled by the French , who built many roads, buildings, fortifications and amenities in Port Louis , many of which you can see on a tour of Mauritius today. Indian artisans and workers also settled on the island during this period.

During the Napoleonic Wars , Britain took Mauritius from France and soon gained popularity with the locals due to their promises of religious freedom and respect of local culture, law and customs. Mauritius remained under British rule until 1968 and became a republic in 1992. Its complex history and diverse nature of its inhabitants means a holiday to Mauritius is a unique opportunity to experience many different cultures in a relatively small area. 

Nature in Mauritius

A real-life ‘Garden of Eden’, Mauritius is known for its natural abundance and diverse habitats. This tropical island is a paradise for nature lovers and its year-round warm temperatures mean a trip to Mauritius is a perfect adventure any time of year. Due to its temperate climate, Mauritius has long been a centre for sugar cane, tea and vanilla plantations. The most famous icon of the island is Le Morne Brabant Mountain , a UNESCO World Heritage Site on the southwestern tip of Mauritius .

A rugged mountain that reaches 556 metres into the sky is the highlight of this picturesque peninsula, which is also home to an idyllic lagoon, caves and clifftops. Its micro-climate encourages distinct flora and fauna to flourish on the peninsula. Aside from Le Morne Brabant , many tourists choose to travel to Mauritius to see the amazing ‘Land of Seven Colours’ in Chamarel , an otherworldly geological formation composed of multi-coloured sand dunes separated into surreal rainbow-hued lines. Finally, Mauritius is famed for its amazing biodiversity and it is home to some of the rarest animals and plants on earth.

The iconic Dodo was endemic to the island, although the introduction of non-native species caused the extinction of a number of Mauritius’s most delicate inhabitants. Today, the flying-fox is the only extant endemic species remaining on the island, although the coral reef that surrounds the island is well-known for its rich marine life and is considered one of the world’s greatest diving hot-spots. 

Culture in Mauritius

Sometimes referred to as the ‘ Rainbow Island’ , due to its rich cultural diversity, Mauritius is home to a melting-pot blend of several cultures whose roots can be traced back to its complex history. French, English and Creole are widely spoken and the islands most famous cultural icon is its ‘ sega’ music and dance, a genre that is unique to Mauritius , originating from the music of African slaves. To get to the heart of the nation’s culture, during a trip to Mauritius , head to Port Louis ’ bustling Central Market or catch a sega show at a local nightclub. Hinduism, Islam and Christianity are three popular religions in Mauritius and you’ll find all three coexisting peacefully. To trace the importance of Hinduism on the island, a tour of the Grand Bassin Crater Lake is a must-do. This is the most sacred Hindu pilgrimage site on the island as well as a tranquil haven set amongst an untouched natural landscape. 

Beyond the white-sand beaches and luxury resorts, Mauritius is a cultural powerhouse with one-of-a-kind natural wonders and unique national culture. A tour of Mauritius can take you from the verdant interior to centuries-old rum distilleries and aromatic vanilla plantations and the lively streets of diverse Port Louis. More than just a honeymooners paradise, the island of Mauritius deserves a place on your list of top places to travel.

Things to do

Where to eat, where to stay in mauritius.

The easiest way to choose accommodation in Mauritius is to divide the island into four areas and match your interests and expectations with the best stretch of coastline. What they have in common is a wide choice of excellent hotels (all with swimming pools) that will satisfy every need – whether you want to pamper yourself or are looking for budget-friendly options.

Read travel guide

The North of Mauritius

The beaches in the north of the island are located around the popular town of Grand Baie, which is a good choice if you’re visiting Mauritius for the first time. You can choose to stay in Grand Baie itself or La Cuvette, Pereybere, Bain Boeuf or Mont Choisy (Mont Choisy beach is gorgeous), all within a few minutes’ drive of each other.

The East of Mauritius

The east coast of Mauritius is known for its luxurious hotels and stunning Belle Mare region. If you’re looking for a golfing getaway, the Post de Flacq peninsula at the northern end of Belle Mare is the perfect spot thanks to Ile Aux Cerfs Golf Club. To the peninsula’s south is Beau Champ, where you can enjoy water sports.

Southern Mauritius

The southern coast is for people who want to escape the crowds and enjoy true tranquillity. The towering cliffs make for a wonderfully dramatic backdrop − but they also help to create some great waves, making it ideal for surfing.

If you are in the Grand Baie area, take a break from your hotel/resort & check out the nightlife which is constantly buzzing.

From there, we recommend packing a towel, plenty of bathing suits, a hat, flip-flops, some walking shoes and a great book to enjoy as you relax in your bungalow.  

They say the west is best, and Mauritius' west coast certainly delivers with picturesque beaches and perfect white sand. However, the whole island is a treasure trove of natural wonder and holiday havens. Whether you head inland to enjoy the Black River Gorges National Park or meander around the coast past palm trees and snorkel hotspots, Mauritius serves beauty and adventure on every corner.  

Our latest info can be found in our Help Centre here  

Mauritius serves up delicious weather all year round, though it does tend to be wetter between December and April. If you consider yourself solar-powered and prefer nothing but sun, we recommend heading over between April and June to enjoy pristine days without the crowds. 

While in Mauritius you can choose your own adventure, either stepping into the slow lane and soaking up island life or filling your days with action and new experiences. Be sure to visit a bazaar and Chinatown in Port Louis before experiencing the local culture by exploring the undeveloped villages in the south. Enjoy the spoils of the ocean with deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, snorkelling and water sports before checking out the island's two UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Mauritian cuisine

From spicy octopus cocozil to sweet cakes, Mauritius is a sensation for the senses, especially your tastebuds. Tantalise them with fusion food and wash it all down with the local Phoenix or Black Eagle beers or a tot of rum.

Getting around

If you fancy exploring a little further afield to Rodrigues and Reunion Islands, then hop aboard the Coraline, which sails once a week from Port Louis Harbour. You can also charter yachts to go cruising around the island.

Before you go

When it’s time to start packing your suitcase, as well putting in your beachwear favourites, please bear in mind that a dress code may apply at your resort. Beachwear is fine for a wander by the sea, but not usually permitted in restaurants.

The best time to travel

This is a tropical paradise, so you can expect tropical temperatures pretty much all year round. It really doesn’t matter when you book holidays to Mauritius, you’re guaranteed sunny skies and balmy temperatures.

May – October

The word ‘winter’ is a bit of a misnomer, because even now you’re looking at a pleasant 20-23°C on average. If you’re a surfer then pack your board, because you’ve got some sweet breaks and lusciously warm water to enjoy at this time of year.

November – April

This is Mauritius’ summer season, with the warmest temperatures from December through to February, when the mercury hops up to a very pleasant 26°C on average. The water is even warmer, so pack your board shorts or bikini.

Mauritius FAQ's

Mauritius, or officially known as the Republic of Mauritius, is an island nation in the Indian Ocean about 350 miles east of Madagascar. This nation forms part of the Mascarene Islands and is mainly based on the islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues. Mauritius is a beautiful island nation known for its sandy beaches, palm trees and turquoise waters. The island is renowned for having been the only recorded home of the now extinct dod but it has many other rare and endemic species of plants and animals.

Visitors to Mauritius are welcomed to the islands world-renowned beaches and further inland, the central plateau offers incredible views over the island. Water sports are typically the top on most visitors lists but Mauritius is also the home to world-class golf and the famous Champs-de-Mars horse races. Mauritius has so much to offer beyond just it`s beaches. A boat trip to Reunion Island is just one of the many sea adventures and those who enjoy hiking should consider visiting Tamarin Falls in the south-west of the island which is a collection of stunning waterfalls well worth the effort. Rare plants and birds can be found at Black River Gorges , the county`s only national park and a more formal example of tropical gardening can be found at the Pamplemouses Royal Botanical Gardens . On the tiny Ile aux Aigrettes , the giant tortoise, pink pigeon and Mauritius kestrel can be found. Mauritius has two UNESCO World Heritage sites both dedicated to the injustices of the past. In the extreme south-west, the Le Morne Cultural Landscape , featuring the huge Le Morne Brabant Monolith is a reminder that this rock and its almost inaccessible caves provided refuge for runaway slaves. Further up the coast at Port Louis`s Bay of Trou Fanfaron , stands the indentured labor camp of Aapravasi Ghat which was the reception point for all of the Indian laborers brought in to take the place of the slaves. In the south-west of Mauritius are the Chamarel plans . There is a small section of sand exposed to the air which has a spectacular variation of color. The different colors separate giving the dunes a striped appearance. Despite the area, experiencing tropical rainfall the dunes never seems to erode.

Mauritius enjoys a relatively mild climate. Although temperatures are rather moderate throughout the year with occasional rainfall, the most pleasant times to visit the island are between the months of April and June and between September and December. As Mauritius is located in the southern hemisphere, the summer and winter months are opposite to seasons in the United States.

We recommend 7-10 days based on what you want to see and do. We offer flexible vacation packages so you can select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities. We suggest a minimum of 3 nights in larger cities.

The island has a distinct network of roads, with the three main ones being: -M3, which links Terre Rouge to Verdun in the North, passing through Port-Louis, the capital. -M2, which links Port Louis to the tourist village of Grand Baie, in the North of the island. -M1, which links the airport in the South East to Port Louis. This is the most important road on the island since it also passes through the largest cities of Curepipe, Vacoas, Quatre-Bornes, Phoenix, Beau-Bassin Rose Hill and Mika. The roads in Mauritius extend across an expanse of around 1,300 miles, with around 4% of it dedicated only to the motorways which fork out in smaller secondary roads. By Taxis: The easiest (and fastest) way to go around Mauritius is by car. If you stay in a villa in Mauritius, you can easily arrange a car and driver to take you around the island. Taxis are available in every corner of the island and in front of every major shopping mall, but these can be quite expensive. Mauritian taxis do not come with meters, so the price is normally established by the driver. Be sure to ask for the price beforehand. It is also wise to avoid hotel taxis since these can be notoriously expensive. By Bus: The cheaper and primary mode of public transportation on the island is by bus. You will see several sheltered bus-stops on every road of the island. The transport schedule generally depends on the bus route, but in most cases, you can expect a bus to go by every 10 to 30 minutes. While there is no bus app in Mauritius, you can check www.mauritius-buses.com for schedules. However, the website is not entirely reliable, so locals often prefer to check the schedule directly with the station master. At some bus stops, the different bus routes and times can be found plastered on the wall. There are no bus passes in Mauritius, but tickets can run between 30 to 60 MUR. By Bicycle: In remote villages, locals also get around by bicycles. This is something you might want to do if you love enjoying Mauritius sceneries at your own pace. The majority of hotels do offer bicycle rentals on a daily or weekly basis. The bikes can range between 800 to 1500 MUR per day.

The local currency is the Mauritian Rupee (MUR) and currency exchange facilities are widely available including at the airport where ATM machines can offer this service. Occasionally some establishments such as hotels or restaurants may accept payment by foreign currency but this is the exception rather than the rule and Mauritian Rupees are almost always required.

Mauritius is truly multicultural and multilingual and for most visitors, it seems strange that so many different languages can be in everyday use. English is the official language but rather bizarrely, few Mauritians are fluent in spoken English. The language most widely used on a daily basis is Mauritian Creole which is heavily influenced by French. The Creole form of greeting is `Bonzour` rather than `Bonjour`. English is a major written language and is also the language used in schools. We suggest you get a good English-Mauritian Creole guidebook and familiarize yourself with common phrases such as hello, goodbye, excuse me and numbers 1-10.
