Overview

Mauritius is a country that looks small on the map and feels large in the experience. Behind the coral reef lie lagoons, in the south green mountains and waterfalls, in the west the rocky headland Le Morne, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Anyone who wants to fulfil a lifelong wish by the sea finds here more than just a beach. The travel season runs from May to November, with dry, mild weather and calm sea.

Le Morne in the south-west is the place for travellers with an occasion: the mountain rises above the peninsula, kitesurfers glide through the lagoon, and hikers climb to the summit. Anyone who additionally wants to see the coastal towns, sugar cane fields and tea plantations hires a driver for a few days. Tap water is mostly treated, but water from bottles remains the safer choice. Cards are accepted in hotels and larger restaurants, while at markets and on the bus cash is needed.

A tip of around 10 % is usual. In the video call you decide whether the island should serve as a place of rest or as a starting point for excursions.
