FOR A CULINARY JOURNEY…
Don’t miss out on Mauritius’ wide variety of delicious, ubiquitous street food, which has been heavily influenced by the island’s multicultural landscape, particularly Indian, Chinese, and African palates. Popular street food items include dholl puri, samosas, boulettes, gateaux piments, boiled or fried noodles, and much more. For those with a sweet tooth, treats such as napolitains, moutay cakes, and laddus will also satisfy your cravings. Port Louis is the ideal place to taste all the flavours that make up Mauritian culinary culture.

FOR STUNNING UNDERWATER SCENERY…
The island is a playground for professional and amateur divers alike, with a series of submerged shipwrecks and plentiful flora and fauna to discover off the Mauritian coast. Beautiful corals and kaleidoscopic fish create a riot of colour on the seabed, where dolphins, turtles, and, if you’re lucky, sperm whales and rays will honour you with their presence. There are multiple diving spots around Mauritius, including the impressive Whale Rock for experienced divers and more accessible sites such as Blue Bay Marine Park for beginners.
