Mauritius is known for its luxurious beachfront hotels, which are particularly popular with newlyweds, but it is also possible to stay in other types of accommodation, where cheaper solutions can be found.
In any case, it is always better to book accommodation in advance, especially during the high season (October-April), as Mauritius is a popular destination and hotels are often full.
The north of Mauritius is undoubtedly the liveliest part, but also the most touristy. Between Trou aux Biches and Grand Baie there are numerous hotels, restaurants, bars and nightclubs. Grand Baie is renowned for its magnificent white sand beaches and crystal-clear lagoons. The Cuvette and the public beach of Grand Baie are two of the most popular places for swimming, sunbathing and water sports such as snorkelling and windsurfing.
Unlike the quieter parts of Mauritius, Grand Baie has a buzzing atmosphere that appeals to all types of travellers, ideal for those who enjoy a lively nightlife, shopping at local markets or exploring restaurants serving delicious Mauritian cuisine.
This part of the island is also renowned for hosting some of the most beautiful beaches in Mauritius with beautiful white sand lagoons, such as those of Mon Choisy, Trou-aux-Biches and Pereybère .
The north of the island is developed with shopping malls, shops and plenty of activities. Besides offering spectacular sights, the northern region of Mauritius is perfectly suited for travellers on a budget or who wish to enjoy the nightlife.
West Mauritius is undoubtedly the most beautiful region of the island. It offers the splendid spectacle of the sun setting over the sea every evening, surrounded by beautiful beaches, breathtaking mountains for hiking and wild places.
It is the most complete region and Flic-en-Flac has one of the most beautiful and largest beaches with many bars and restaurants. It is also the most touristy coastal village in the west.
The town is home to numerous hotels and family resorts that cater for travellers of all budgets. From luxurious beachfront properties with miniclubs and family pools to inexpensive self-catering flats, you will find accommodation options to suit your needs.
In addition, Flic en Flac offers a wide range of dining options, from informal beachside restaurants to upmarket eateries serving local and international cuisine. The town also has a lively atmosphere, with markets, shops and entertainment venues for everyone to enjoy.
If you are looking for different options, you can look to Tamarin, loved by surfers, Rivière Noire, which combines sophistication and the beach, and La Gaulette, a little further afield, a small fishing village.
The South of Mauritius is the wildest part of Mauritius and is perfect for nature lovers. For beaches, however, it is best to head south-east towards Mahébourg and Blue Bay or south-west towards Le Morne. Also towards Bel Ombre, there are some very beautiful and uncrowded white sand beaches.
This part of the island is not very well equipped to receive mass tourism. We highly recommend sleeping near Mahébourg, at Blue Bay in the south-east and at Le Morne in the south-west if you want to go on excursions to admire the immense cliffs hit by big ocean waves.
The latter village in particular is dominated by the iconic Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Mauritius’ most recognisable monuments. This majestic basalt monolith offers breathtaking views and challenging hiking trails for adventurous souls. At its base you will find pristine beaches and crystal clear waters, perfect for swimming and relaxing.
This area is ideal for all water sports enthusiasts: kitesurfing, as the region is renowned for its excellent spots, with constant trade winds and shallow lagoons offering ideal conditions for all levels. Or windsurfing, which requires windy conditions typical of Le Morne, scuba diving to explore the vibrant underwater world around Le Morne as well as snorkelling, stand-up paddleboarding and deep-sea fishing.
The east coast of Mauritius is also relatively wild, but with plenty of hotels. The beaches are rarely crowded except on Sundays, when Mauritians take trips out. There are also small, lively fishing villages.
It is a perfect area if you are looking for a quiet stay, but not ideal if you want to explore the island in its entirety as it involves long journeys to cross the island and reach the other parts. Also, during the astral winter, it is quite windy and not always pleasant for swimming and beach life.
