Mauritius Travel Guide
Mauritius, Africa
Mauritius in Africa is next to the Indian Ocean right off of the South
East Coast of Africa. It is a beautiful country full of dangerous
volcanoes, mountains that are scattered all across the island, tropical
plants and forests, and beautiful coral reefs that surround the entire
island. It is the perfect getaway island for anyone who is looking to
relax, have a romantic time with your loved one, and bask in the sandy white
beaches and transparent water that opens up into the vast sea.
To the west of the island there are two great places to visit; Grand
Bay and the Balaclava Ruins. The Grand bay is the place for tourists to
hang out and find everything they need. It is also home to the best
bars, discos, and restaurants that the Mauritians love to hang out in.
The Balaclava Ruins are located near the Baie aux Tortues. During the
17th century sailors named the place after the variety and the number of
tortoises that are in the vicinity of the old Balaclave estate. There
you will be able to see the original sea walls of the area that were
first created by Mahé de Labourdonnais.
On the east side of the island is the Ile aux Cerfs and the Belle Mare
beach. Mauritius is always full of fun and excitement – but what better
way to truly experience this than to take part in the amazing water
sports. Ile aux Cerfs has the most fantastic and breathtaking beaches in
all of Mauritius and is the perfect place for you to learn all of the
different water sports that they have to offer or just lounge around in
the sun and soak it all in. The Belle Mare beach is another beautiful
beach that you can find. It is more tranquil and peaceful for those who
are looking to relax for the day.
