Mauritius - Land of Sugar and Smiles
Lying in the Indian Ocean, some 1,800 kilometres off the east coast of Africa, Mauritius is an outstandingly beautiful tropical island.  Its 330-kilometre coastline of sandy beaches is almost entirely surrounded by one of the largest unbroken coral reefs in the world, home to more than a thousand species of fish.  The interior rises to a central plateau, overlooked by mountains reaching up to more than 800 metres.

Mauritius fulfils every visitor's dream of a tropical island - swaying palms, a dazzling blue ocean, white sandy beaches, sugar cane fields, towering mountains and the leisurely Mauritian way of life combine to make a truly idyllic setting.  Add to this the attractive resorts - ranging from the luxurious to the pleasantly informal, from the intimate (perfect for weddings and honeymoons) to those offering entertainment and activities for all the family.

Mauritius offers superb diving and many resorts have professionally-run dive schools, with courses catering for everybody from novices to those seeking night dive and open water qualifications - and most provide instruction in several languages.

We would be pleased to check the flights and room availability for the resort(s)
of your choice based on the best value and\or offers available at the time.

This include family holidays, weddings, honeymoons, wedding anniversary,
early booking discounts, free nights offer... where applicable.
