Come under the water with us and let’s take a look at one fo the best dive sites in Mauritius…
The sheer drop off fuses with enormous boulders to create an exciting topography of caves and arches, where lobsters scuttle over the rock and reef fish zig-zag above you. You can dive down to nearly 30 metres in this area and explore the cathedral-like cavern, lit angelically by the sunlight beaming through the surface of the water.
This dive spot is located on the west coast of the island near Flic-en-Flac and is one of our favourites!

Mauritius is one of the best destinations in the world for kitesurfing.
There are fantastic surf spots all around the island but it’s the south that is renowned for strong and consistent tradewinds, especially between April and November.
One Eye at Pointe du Morne or Cap Dal in Tamarin are the island’s most famous kitesurfing areas, so you can learn in the lagoon or refine your pro moves on the perfect barrel wave.
Laze in a net above glistening waters as you whip across the ocean, gazing out at lush islands and white-sand beaches. Drop anchor at secluded spots to swim and snorkel, then jump back on board to tuck into a tropical lunch of fresh salads and juicy fruits.
We think a private catamaran cruise is one of the best ways to explore our coastline.
The icing on the cake? You might even see huge pods of dolphins.
Mauritius is paradise for stand-up paddleboarding – or SUP, for those in the know. 😉
The lagoons are as clear as glass and it’s one of the best ways (and most eco-friendly) to explore the island’s coastline.
But there’s more to explore inland, too. Push your paddle in the water to navigate a labyrinth of thick, green mangroves unreachable by foot; or glide down rivers to discover hidden waterfalls.
