Magical, marvellous, magestic Mauritius

Mauritius is a true island paradise, offering more than just powder-soft beaches and turquoise lagoons. Perfect for honeymoons, weddings, family getaways, or special celebrations, this tropical gem blends natural beauty with vibrant culture, creating a holiday experience like no other.

Romantic Escapes and Family Fun

For couples seeking romance, Mauritius provides an idyllic setting for honeymoons and weddings. Luxurious beachfront resorts, candlelit dinners by the ocean, and indulgent spa treatments set the scene for unforgettable moments. Families will find just as much to enjoy, with spacious resorts, kids' clubs, and activities like snorkeling, kayaking, and guided nature trails.

Beyond the Beach

While the beaches are stunning, the island's lush interior offers plenty to explore. Discover cascading waterfalls like Chamarel, trek through the Black River Gorges National Park, and marvel at the island’s volcanic landscapes. The Pamplemousses Botanical Garden is a must-visit, home to giant water lilies, rare tropical plants, and towering palms.

Keep an eye out for the island's fascinating wildlife, including mischievous monkeys, brightly colored birds, and giant tortoises. For underwater adventurers, the vibrant coral reefs are perfect for snorkeling and diving, while boat trips offer the chance to spot dolphins and even go whale watching.

A Cultural Mosaic

Mauritius’s cultural tapestry is woven with Creole, French, Indian, and British influences. This vibrant heritage is reflected in its cuisine, where you can savor dishes like fragrant curries, fresh seafood, and sweet treats like gateaux patate. Explore colorful markets, experience traditional Sega dancing, and visit historical sites that tell the island’s story.

When to Visit

Mauritius is a year-round destination, with warm temperatures ranging from 22°C to 28°C during the cooler, drier months of May to October, making it an excellent summer escape from the UK. The hotter months of November to April see temperatures rise to 30°C or higher, perfect for sun-seekers.

Getting There

Direct flights from the UK to Mauritius take approximately 12 hours, bringing you closer to the island’s tropical charm. Or why not break your journey and treat yourselves to a couple of days in the Emirates on your way to or from your tropical island paradise.
