Beachside pampering

Starting from Flic en Flac beach which stretches over a few kilometres offering amazing snorkelling, jogging possibilities, you may also want to grab a boat there and swim with dolphins as a fun family activity or simply spend the afternoon on the sun-kissed beach to capture the fabulous sunset.

Wild Wild West

Year-round activities abound, featuring hiking, scuba diving, big game fishing… Crammed with natural wonders, the west coast boasts the Black River Gorges National Park where rare birds can be spotted amidst the lush flora and a hike in the mountain offers spectacular vistas of the ocean and Le Morne Brabant.

You will undoubtedly also enjoy the drive to Chamarel weaving inland through the forests and the waterfall to the seven-coloured earth, a geological phenomenon by volcanic activity, allowing you to capture the mood of the wild wild…west of Mauritius.
