Benitier Island tour

Enjoy a Full-day activity on the west coast, including a swim with dolphins and lunch on Benitiers Island

 

A unique experience of swimming with dolphins in their natural surroundings!

This is definitely one of the best things to do in Mauritius.

Unlike many other dolphin facilities that limit swimming with dolphins to pools or shallow water encounters, we provide the unique opportunity to enter the dolphins’ natural environment and enjoy an encounter with the dolphins in the open sea.

More details about Option 2

Volcanic Crater of Trou aux Cerfs at Curepipe 

One of the famous natural tourist attractions in Mauritius is the Trou aux Cerfs dormant volcano located about 1 kilometer from the town of Curepipe. The dormant, volcanic crater is around 605 meters above sea level, with a diameter of 350 meters and a depth of around 100 meters formed millions of years ago. It has a beautiful panoramic view of the crater and of the town.

Bois Cheri 

Bois Chéri is the biggest tea producer in Mauritius. It is the first tea plantation in Mauritius and dates back to 1892. Bois Chéri Estate is one of the main sites of the Mauritian Tea Route. 

 

Grand Bassin       

Grand Bassin in Mauritius should be on your ‘must see’ list of attractions. The sacred lake also called Ganga Talao represents the mighty Ganges river of India. You'll find her tucked away in the mountains of the South West surrounded by colourful Hindu temples and gods. 

 

Chamarel

The village of Chamarel in southwest Mauritius is home to two natural wonders - the magnificent Chamarel waterfall and the seven colored earth of Chamarel. One of the most iconic places of interest Mauritius is renowned for - you cannot leave the island without visiting Chamarel 7 Coloured Earth. Set in the middle of lush green vegetation, you will enjoy the mesmerizing view. With distinct colours of red, brown, violet, green, blue, purple and yellow, the Geopark has 15 metres of highly coloured dunes - an almost surreal, lunar-like spectacle of rainbow-hued sand dunes before your eyes. The reserve is also home to giant tortoises, a few who are long term residents and are practically the friendliest giant tortoises you will ever meet.

 

Alexandra falls and Black River Gorges   

As part of this tour you will also enjoy the view of the mesmerising view of the Black River Gorges, where you will see many endangered species of plants and some monkeys of course.

Le Morne Public Beach

Le Morne Public Beach is located on the south-west part of Mauritius island, 25 kilometers from Black River Gorges National Park. The beach is well known for its dramatic backdrop of the Morne Brabant mountain, as well as for its clear waters, white sands and coral reefs which make it popular for snorkeling and diving.

 

Macondé Viewpoint

Macondé viewpoint is undoubtedly the most popular viewpoint in Mauritius, providing unparalleled views over the turquoise waters of the southwest coast and Le Morne Brabant.

Located in the village of Baie du Cap, along a hairpin bend, the viewpoint can be accessed from the main road through a narrow set of stairs.

 

Rochester falls

Rochester Falls is a famous site that everyone makes a point of visiting. It is also one of the most accessible waterfalls in the country. Rochester Falls is a waterfall located in the south of Mauritius, just outside a small village called Souillac on the way to Surinam. Rochester Falls is a perfect place for a day's rest and picnic, swimming, photography and enjoying nature. Very popular for its rectangular shaped rocks, Rochester is the widest waterfall in Mauritius. It reaches a height of about 10 metres.

 

La vanilla nature park

La Vanille Nature Park previously known as La Vanille Crocodile Park was created in 1985, and its name honors the old vine cultivated in the valley where the reserve of 5 hectares is located.

Mauritian hospitality, conservation of nature, and welfare of the animals are privileged in this magical setting, where our guides will take you on an unforgettable visit of the reserve.

La vallée des couleurs nature park

Spreads over 450 acres of land, La Vallée des Couleurs Nature Park is operational since the 4th of July 1998.

The range of natural and green landscapes revolves around the indigenous fauna and flora, actively engaged in the eco-tourism business, the discovery of the 23 coloured earth constitutes of a unique geological feature in this part of the world. The park is committed to provide memorable experiences that are thrilling, fun and educational.

 

Gris-Gris

Gris Gris is the beach which is located in the extreme south of the island. This little piece of beach does not have coral reef, the big waves come breaking on the shore offering an amazing view to the visitors. It offers a contrast with the other beaches in the South popular for their calm sea and a very is the only place in Mauritius where swimming is strongly discouraged for hobbyists and professionals, strong currents and huge waves breaking on this part of the island makes it totally impractical.


Do not be fooled by this beautiful golden beach and deep blue sea, Gris Gris is an extremely dangerous beach!
