Overview

Mauritius

As far as beaches are concerned, it is one of the most fashionable destinations of the Indian Ocean; so popular that you sometimes find it hard to find a room during the high season (November to March). Inland, it is a cultural kaleidoscope nestled in a lush green setting. Mosques, Hindu and Tamil temples and churches coexist peacefully and harmoniously. Take your time exploring the island, either by bus, car or bicycle. To feel completely alone in the Indian Ocean, take a trip to Rodrigues...

Country Guide

Mauritius Mauritius, All you need to know!

Our Editorial team's advice

In order to make the most of the warm and humid Mauritian summer, it is preferable to go between December and March. Although this is hurricane season, they rarely strike the island. The best time to go is December. The weather is hot, dry and sunny everyday. Most Mauritian students return for the holidays from the various surounding countries they are sent to, to study. Mauritius becomes lively and animated once more as everyone livens ups for the summer holidays! The North of the island is the warmest and dryest and most lively, especially around Grand Baie. If however visitors are looking for something a little calmer and more authentic, then Grand Baie should be avoided at all costs.
