Mauritius is that dream destination that's easily associated with long white sandy beaches, translucent blue waters, lush nature and honeymoons. But once you're there, you'll soon realize that Mauritius has much more to offer. Geographically located in Africa, between Reunion Island and Rodrigue Island, Mauritius is part of the Mascarene Archipelago in the western Indian Ocean. The Portuguese were the first Europeans to discover this magnificent island. The French and British then took it in turns to colonize it, until it gained independence on March 12, 1968. From an agricultural economy to a diversified economy ranging from tourism to sugar cane, from agriculture to financial services, Mauritius has a strong economy that has been developing in recent years towards upmarket tourism, while maintaining a sustainable and responsible ecological orientation. You'll be offered a prestigious vacation focused on the island's rich cultural heritage, from land to sea, all the way to the center of the island, with so much to offer.
Between land and sea
There are of course some must-sees that you'll be delighted to discover, and Chamarel’s Seven Coloured Earths, located in the Rivière Noire district in the south of the island, is one of them. You'll marvel at this natural geological formation of 7-colored dunes: brown, purple, red, green, blue, violet and yellow. Never seeming to erode, they are harmoniously sculpted by tropical rains. The land was discovered in 1785 by one of its very first owners, Charles-Antoine de Chazal de Chamarel, who gave it his name. You can also enjoy a superb view of the Cascade de Chamarel not far from the dunes. Surrounding the dunes is a forest of 200 ebony trees, which have guarded the site for over 300 years, along with its inhabitants, deer and tortoises. Continue your tour of the south of the island with a 7 km trail to the summit of Le Morne Brabant . After a 500-metre climb, you'll be amazed by the breathtaking view over the whole of south-west Mauritius and its bluish lagoon. After this ascent, you'll certainly want to cool off, so head for Rochester Falls, magnificent waterfalls in the middle of the countryside, which you'll discover after passing through fields of sugar cane. At 10 meters high, you'll be in the heart of a tranquil setting where only the sound of falling water will rule. You're sure to end your excursion in the South by taking the three-stop tea route: Domaine des Aubineaux, Bois Chéri and Domaine de Saint-Aubin, where, respectively, you'll discover one of the last colonial homes from the 19th century, the secrets of making tea with vanilla or lemon aromas, and the various stages of cane processing in a sugar factory. Finally, don't miss the opportunity to dine on a typical Mauritian meal in the colonial house dating from 1819.
The north of the island is just as rich in discoveries. Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius, is a must. The nerve center of the island, it's a cosmopolitan city of colorful skyscrapers, colonial-style buildings and a local market. And if you'd like to take in the sights of Port Louis, Moka and Beau Bassin, conquer Le Pouce via its footpaths. The panorama, which you'll have to earn with a little effort, is absolutely superb from this mountain. Then continue a little further north, to one of the world's finest botanical gardens: Pamplemousses Botanic Garden. Created in 1736 during French colonization, it is the oldest botanical garden in the Southern Hemisphere. It was the governor of the time, Mahé de La Bourdonnais, who chose this location. You can visit the Château de La Bourdonnais, located not far from the garden. A few years later, the French intendant of the islands of France (Mauritius) and Bourbon (Reunion Island) planted many species here. The site now contains priceless treasures: spice trees, ebony, mahogany, mango, mangosteen, etc... Finally, in the far north, you'll find Cap Malheureux, which sadly owes its name to the many shipwrecks that took place there. It was also at this cape that the English attacked Mauritius in 1810. Today, many tourists get married in the little red-roofed church, where the setting has become incredibly beautiful, with a breathtaking view of Coin de Mire, an islet a few kilometers away, a small sandy beach at their feet and the sublime lagoon inviting them to happiness.
Mauritius can also be visited through its magnificent waters, coasts, lagoons and neighboring islands. Since you'll be in the north of the island at the end of your visit to Les Terres, take a boat to the islet of Coin de Mire, which you'll have spotted from Cap Malheureux. This is a genuine nature reserve, so you won't be able to access it, but you will be able to contemplate it from a little closer than on the mainland. You can, however, dive into its waters, known as Gunner's Coin, to discover the beauty of its seabed. Take a boat around Gunner's Coin, and you'll discover Île Plate and Îlot Gabriel, which are open to the public. For professional scuba divers, La Cathédrale, one of Mauritius's most famous spots, off Flic-en-Flac in the west of the island, is a must. For beginners, the Blue Bay Marine Park in the south-east of the island is the ideal place to learn about the underwater world. For surface water sports enthusiasts, kitesurfing is very popular in the lagoon and shallow flat waters of Le Morne. And for our other guests who prefer to enjoy moments of relaxation on a beach, the beaches of Flic-en-Flac, Blue Bay, with its luminous lagoon and marine reserve, Le Morne, Mont Choisy, the beach at Pointe d'Esny and its immense turquoise lagoon, and the beach at Ile aux Cerfs are the places to be.
A stay in Mauritius means recharging your batteries, meeting its extremely kind and caring inhabitants, immersing yourself in a magnificent landscape, enjoying a quality vacation in an environmentally-friendly vacation home, experiencing a complete change of scenery, and making memories with the most beautiful images of life you've ever experienced.
