Central Mauritius is dominated by dramatic volcanic mountains, beautiful waterfalls and lush forests, all surrounded by fertile farmlands producing the islands most important crop and export - sugar cane.
Mauritius is a relatively young volcano that arose only around 8 million years ago. Because of its geographical isolation, a range of unique plants and animals arose here, the most famous of which is the extinct flightless bird, the Dodo. This strange bird lived in the lush nature of the island, where there were no predators to threaten it, but it did not survive the arrival of people. Sailors discovered the island in the 1600s, and caught large numbers of these birds to provide meat for their long ocean voyages on which fresh supplies were often lacking.

Read moreThe Île aux Cerfs is a small island off the east coast of Mauritius that covers nearly 100 hectares. The island’s name means “the deer island”, and even though this term is still used, the deer disappeared from the island long ago. Today the island, which offers a wealth of different activities, attracts many visitors because of its beautiful beaches and the good snorkeling in the warm waters of the lagoon’s colourful coral reef. It is also the perfect place to get a real adrenaline kick, as there are watersports of all calibers on offer.
Read moreIf you really want to discover the true nature of south western Mauritius, then a visit to “Seven Coloured Earth” near Chamarel is an absolute must. The Seven Coloured earth is a fascinating geological phenomenon, created from colour variations created by volcanic rocks cooling at different rates. This formation consists of “dunes” of different coloured soils, that create an almost magical mixture of beautiful colours. Seven Coloured Earth is one of the most popular tourist attractions on Mauritius and covers an area of some 7,500m2. The Seven Coloured Earth is located in a compact area of forest, which helps to make the experience even more spectacular.
Read moreBlack River Gorges National Park was created in 1994 to protect Mauritius’ remaining areas of forest. The park lies in the south western part of Mauritius and covers a total area of 65.74km2, equivalent to over 3% of the total landmass of Mauritius. The park includes the mountain of Black River Peak, the summit of which at 828m above sea level is the highest point on the island. There are a number of good footpaths that will take you to the summit. We recommend you visit here early in the morning as there can often be dense cloud during the middle of the day, which rather spoils the views and the whole experience of being on the mountain.
