Top 10 Free Things to do in Mauritius, Mauritius
Mauritius is arguably Africa’s wealthiest destination, a tropical paradise with tons to do. Port Louis, the modern capital of this 38-mile by 29-mile island, is a bustling port with a revitalized waterfront and a busy market. But most visitors gravitate toward resort areas such as Mont Choisy, quiet Trou-aux-Biches and the more bustling Flic en Flac, popular with scuba divers. Rivière Noire is ideal for those looking for great deep-sea fishing.

Probably the best beach I’ve ever been to! So beautiful sand and sea. Shallows to swim or play in with safety buoys and rope to help you avoid going out too far. There’s lots of parking spaces available as well as ample room under the trees just off the beach for picnicking or games.

This 6,574-hectacre natural reserve is filled with hiking trails to observe the indigenous forests and variety of wildlife.

If the natural world, viewpoints, waterfalls are your thing then definitely set aside time to explore this park. It is possible to experience the highlights in one day, but for a more in depth experience allow longer. We spent 6 days exploring the area doing several well marked hiking trails, visiting waterfalls, the 7 coloured earths, the Ebony forest, the rum distillery at Chamarel and doing several scenic drives.

This stretch of spectacular beachfront stretches more than three kilometers.

We had a great time here. It has white sand and clear blue water. Trees are close enough to have some shade but the best parts is going for a walk towards the resorts where sea is cut with a low shelf and you can find sea cucumbers, starfish and crabs. Also, the beach has a nice view on the sunset.
4. Pointe d'Esny

Point d'Esny looks amazing with crystal clear water and one of the whitest sandy beaches I've seen on Mauritius. It is great to spend a couple of hours here. There are, however, no facilities and for food it's a good idea to go to the busier Blue Bay. The entrance is quite hard to find, there is a small path in between two villas on the coastal road from Mahebourg to Blue Bay. There is a sign that says "Pedestrian Access to the Beach". After like 150m or so you will find yourself on this tropical beach. It is not a very hidden gem anymore, you will find yourself with other people, but it is still beautiful.

We climbed Le pouce from Le Dauguet, it’s longer that staring from petit verger. It’s a constant climb from sea level up to 712 meters. At the summit you can magnificent views of Port Louis and the central region, Better use a guide if you choose this route. The descent was way except you have to be very careful if it rains as the pathway can be very slippery.
