These activities will guarantee that you won't have a single moment of boredom while on your dream holiday to Mauritius!
It’s virtually impossible to travel to Mauritius and not have some kind of experience with the dazzling clear waters that surround the island. Whether it’s swimming, surfing or just sitting on the beach and watching the waves roll in, you can’t help but admire the beautiful Indian Ocean. For a more up-close and personal encounter, there’s nothing better than a glass bottom boat excursion. Venture out under the brilliance of the Mauritian sun and gain a front row seat to the spectacular coral and marine life display that exists beneath the surface. Witness awe-inspiring tropical fish, vibrant reefs and even turtles and dolphins that call the coasts of Mauritius home.
If that’s not quite thrilling enough for you, you can immerse yourself in the magical underwater world of Mauritius with an underwater sea walk. This one-of-a-kind excursion allows guests to don special underwater helmets and walk amongst dynamic coral reefs that are teeming with some of the world’s rarest tropical marine creatures. Wave goodbye to turtles, seahorses and clownfish as they drift into the distance, and emerge from the water with a new-found love and appreciation for the extraordinary life that thrives beneath.
Families wondering what to do in Mauritius for a thrill, or couples looking for an adventure need look no further than a zip-lining experience.
