From blissful white sandy beaches to towering green forests and spectacular hiking trails, a luxury Mauritius holiday offers an escape to a true island paradise.

Located in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Madagascar, Mauritius boasts turquoise oceans and coral reefs teeming with life. In fact, Mauritius is home to an array of endemic wildlife, found nowhere else on Earth. Although the Dodo may be gone, species such as the Mauritius Kestrel and the Pink Pigeon are a birdwatchers reward for a trip to Mauritius.

For those who like adventure, there’s plenty to do. An island cruise is the perfect way to see the sights and a trek to Le Morne Brabant is rewarded with incredible panoramic views. Try your hand at paddle boarding or zip line your way across the island, the choice is yours.

If you’d prefer your Mauritius holiday to be a relaxing one, then there’s plenty to tickle your fancy. Away from the pristine beaches, the capital of Port Louis offers a wealth of culture and shopping opportunities. Head to the bustling Central Market for your souvenirs, or the famous Blue Penny Museum for an education of all things Mauritius. It may be a small island, but a Mauritius holiday is full to the brim with things to see and do.
