Emerald green waters, endless stretches of golden sand and boat trips to idyllic islets make Mauritius a tropical paradise. The scorching sun makes you want to escape into the forested and mountainous interiors to hike an extensive trail. The air of excitement and anticipation in Mauritius is infectious.

Quirky beach shacks invite you to laze around and sip on some cold beverages while quiet fishing villages nudge you to explore the way of life of the locals. While this tropical nirvana is the life of the party, Mauritius is also subtle with its charming waterfalls and scenic viewpoints. It is world-class diving and horse riding that gets your adrenaline pumping. Sailing off to the sunset on a romantic cruise with your spouse and extravagant barbecue lunches by the clear lagoon and seas.
