Mauritius Beach Holidays

The phosphorescent waters of the Indian Ocean lap the shores of the island of Mauritius, a tropical haven famed for its turquoise waves, pearly white beaches, lagoons, reefs and luxury resorts. Mauritius beach holidays promise coast-loving travellers with tranquillity and countless golden crescent bays. There’s the west coast beach spot of Flic en Flac, with its unspoilt charm and slower pace of life. Home to plenty of water sporting opportunities, scenic walks and sunbathing spots, leaving towels shoreside and exploring is encouraged here. Snorkellers needn’t feel left out either, with nearby Grand Baie’s seemingly never-ending coastline that’s rife with aquatic life. Seafood lovers are spoilt too, with ample dining options and opportunities to try your hand at fishing with locals and shucking oysters. Of course, it’s not all beach and no culture, with plenty of temples and French-style colonial villas surrounded by greenery thrown in for good measure. However you spend your Mauritius beach holidays, you’ll likely find yourself longing for another day coast side...

Mauritius Beach Holidays Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

Over the years Mauritius has become an increasingly popular holiday destination and rightly so. Travellers to this Eden-esque Island will discover a paradise packed with outdoor adventuring, snorkelling, and most importantly plenty of beaches for that all important sun basking. Spend lazy mornings wandering the island’s colourful markets and fishing villages, and your afternoons catching rays on the shoreline and sunset watching, before sitting down for a seafood dinner and a tipple to toast a trip well spent.


Kite Surfing at Le Morne

Le Morne hugs the southwest shoreline of Mauritius, offering beach lovers an unforgettable escape from the tourist hordes. The surrounding seascape and Morne Brabant hill act as the perfect backdrop for all things serenity and seclusion, with boat trips offering dolphin watching and panoramic views of the haven-like island. Of course, it’s not all relaxation and sun basking, with plenty of kite-surfing and parasailing opportunities for the thrill seekers too.


Gris Gris Exploring

Gris Gris (so good they named it twice!) is a beachy destination with a difference, surrounded by a dark and rocky terrain; the absence of coral reefs here only heightens the intrigue and mystery. This enigmatic spot owes its jagged landscape to the harsh winds that have shaped the rockface and nearby local village of Souillac, on the southern tip of the island. Mammoth waves and knife-edge mountains dampen the howling sea, making for an epic coastline that’s well worth exploring.
