There are so many highlights in this fascinating country that it is impossible to list them all here. Our travel consultants will discuss your interests and be able to put a specific itinerary together for you, but below are a few must see’s!
PORT LOUIS
Port Louis, the cosmopolitan capital city of Mauritius, was founded in 1735 by the French governor and pioneer Bertrand-François Mahé de La Bourdonnais. Located on the Northwest Coast, Port Louis is the administrative and business capital of the island.
RODRIGUES
Rodrigues lies 560 kilometres north-east of Mauritius: the jewel in the crown of the Mascarene Islands – an 18-kilometre by 8-kilometre pearl surrounded by a crystalline blue lagoon twice its size. The secure waters of the lagoon and the trade winds that gently buffer the island provide many opportunities for the adventurous. Rodrigues is a wonderful playground for scuba divers who quickly fall in love with the diverse coral reef ecosystem and its colourful assortment of sub-aquatic flora and fauna. Equally, the island appeals to those who love windsurfing, kite-surfing, sailing and fishing. Due to its outer reef edges sitting nearly ten kilometres from the coastline, Rodriguan waters are rich in fish. In fact, no fewer than three world record catches have been hooked here since 2005.
