Why Mauritius.
A lagoon-ringed volcanic island where the UNESCO-listed Le Morne peninsula rises dramatically over turquoise water.
The Seven Coloured Earths of Chamarel and the surreal "underwater waterfall" illusion off the southwest are natural curiosities found nowhere else.
Its culture is a genuine melting pot — Creole, Indian, French, and Chinese — reflected in some of the best fusion food in the Indian Ocean.
Belle Mare and Le Morne anchor a world-class resort scene, from family-friendly to ultra-luxury, on calm, swimmable lagoons.
Golf, big-game fishing, and catamaran days round out a beach holiday that consistently rates among the Indian Ocean’s finest.
