Enjoying a unique cruising experience on board of a catamaran is one of the must during your holidays. On the East Coast, the turquoise glimmer of the lagoon stretches out to the horizon. On this side of the island, the particularly wide reach of the lagoon allows for activities in quiet waters.
Time to answer the call of the ocean: by sailing across the south-east out in the lagoon, immerse yourself in the crystal clear waters and snorkel among patches of stag horn coral, populated by minuscule fish and more odd-looking species, such as the elongated trumpet fish and the stunning coachmen, with its white dorsal fin. Visit the Grand River South East Waterfall.
Swim under the watchful eye of the Crew, who will equip you with a lifejacket or a lifebuoy if you should be uncomfortable in the water. Back on board, the barbecue grill gets going as lunch will be served shortly... and what a great lunch that is: fresh fish and chicken grilled to perfection and served with a selection of salads and a side of garlic bread. The scrumptious menu, attentive service of the crew and incomparable view gives a newfound meaning to the term paradise holiday.
After lunch, sail across to Ile aux Cerfs where one can enjoy free time at leisure. Around 15.00, the catamaran leaves the island. The day ends as beautifully as it starts: when the winds are favorable, the sails will be out as the catamaran is steered back to the mainland. Lay back with a last refreshing drink on the catamaran’s trampoline, sun-kissed and satisfied after a day full of unforgettable rejuvenating experiences. And take in the stunning beauty of the East Coast one last time before heading home.
This trip goes through Cap Malheureux, a small village in the island far north, dominated by an attractive red roofed Church and offering a splendid view over Gunner's Quoin and the northern islands. A drive through Grand Bay leads to Pamplemousses Gardens- a haven for some 500 rare exotic plants - with giant water lilies, the Talipot Palm - flowering once every 60 years and various spices. Enjoy a traditional lunch at Tante Athalie restaurant. The trip continues to Port Louis to visit the local market and the commercial center, Caudan Waterfront.
Fort Adelaide (also known as La Citadelle) was built in a very strategic location on higher lands of Port Louis at 240 feet above sea level. The construction of Fort Adelaide started on 1832 and completed after almost ten years. Fort Adelaide offers a vast panorama on Port-Louis and its harbour. The British built this fortress in fear of a civil war from the remaining French settlers on the island and also for the purpose of guarding the harbour against enemy attacks. From the Fort Adelaide, we guarantee a breath-taking view of Port Louis and of the mountain range surrounding Port Louis.
Visit the Port Louis Waterfront and the Le Caudan Waterfront shopping complex. There are numerous exciting shopping outlets and restaurants overlooking the Port Louis harbour. The Le Caudan Waterfron shopping complex extends about 170 boutiques at a shopper’s disposal. Among them, propose the M.A.S.T Ship model shop where frail rafts, cutters, schooners or majestic gallions have been rebuilt with teakwood in their finest details by local artisans of unbeatable talent. Marine craftsmanship was born right from the dawn of civilisation. The greatest pages of history were written by impressive vessels with prestigious names, whose authentic model ships can be found at M.A.S.T.
The craft market in Le Caudan Waterfront in particular is a hive of activity with wonderful ambiance where you are sure to find a lot of souvenirs for the family back home.
During the tour, we propose a Chinese menu for lunch, especially made by chefs from Guangzhou.
After lunch, we proceed to the Mauritius horse racing club commonly called the Champ de Mars that was founded in 1812, making it the oldest horse-racing club in the Southern Hemisphere, and one of the oldest in the world. Horse racing in Mauritius is a local happening, a lot of people in Mauritius are involved with horse racing, and you can expect to have about 30,000 visitors in each race day. This tour combines history, tradition, glamour and excitement at the Mauritius horse racing arena.
It's time for a sunny getaway on the West Coast. The light ocean breeze forebodes a stunning day on the catamaran with their most welcoming crew.
Our first stop: Tamarin Bay. Keep an eye out for pods of spinner or bottlenose dolphins that stay in our western coastline waters. If you are lucky, they might be in sight, just for you to admire these beloved mammals’ acrobatics that could be the highlight of your tropical holiday.
The boat then heads to Black River, all sails hoisted. In the lagoon, a patch reef about two meters deep, harbors colorful fishes and small crustaceans. Get into your snorkelling gear and chase after butterfly fish or tease passing trumpet fish while admiring the coral outcrops spread on the white sand. Taste the saltiness of the water as you swim under the vigilant and trained eye of the crew, ready to intervene should anyone need any help.
Since nothing gets an appetite going like a swim in the sea, the crew gets to lunch preparation. As you climb back on board, the delicious smell of local cuisine will make your mouth water. Feast on grilled fish and chicken with various salads, as well as bananas flambéed in rum for dessert, depending on the season.
The boat is then steered towards the infamous Bénitiers Rock, which stands over the turquoise lagoon. As the boat anchors as close as possible, depending on the tide, be sure to snap a picture next to this mysterious outcrop that features endlessly on Mauritian postcards. The aqua water laps gently on the boat and the world is all blue and green as far as the eye can see, except for the Bénitiers Island, laden with coconut trees.
Of course, you can also choose to stay on the catamaran and jump off the deck into the best swimming pool in the world: the Indian Ocean! Warm, crystal clear and calm; you might even catch yourself making plans to stay indefinitely...
In the late afternoon, the wind will pick up in the boat’s sails, gliding you back to shore while the sun starts its descent. Enjoy the last of the wonderful atmosphere with a final drink and an inside joke or two with the other passengers on board.
This cruise is as the coast’s reputation itself: lay back, sunny and wonderful
Ever dreamed of driving a subscooter? Now you can do it, safely, in 3 meters of water! No need to be a diver or even to know how to swim to embark, alone or with another person, on this original and unique underwater adventure.
After a 10 minutes briefing, you will be able to pilot your own subscooter, under the supervision of two accompanying diving guides.
The subscooter is easy to pilot, with a steering wheel and two accelerator pedals.
It has a maximum speed of 4km/hr. Moreover, you only have to press a button to dive or to surface.
The air inside the cabin is permanently regenerated due to an air cylinder with autonomy of 50 minutes for two persons. In case of emergency, a backup system can take over. The cabin is also equipped with an alarm button which can be activated anytime to draw the attention of the accompanying diving guides. The building plans and the modus operandi of the subscooter have been approved by a renowned International Classification Society (IRS).
Comfortably seated, one behind the other, on height-adjustable seats, you can breathe normally inside the big transparent dome and enjoy the panoramic view.
No regulator is required. What a great pleasure then, to share throughout the trip, your comments and views on the marine flora and fauna!
Down to 3 meters, the immersion is gentle and gradual. This is because the subscooter stands on a hydraulic platform. Such equipment and accessories, especially the torpedoes used by the divers guides, make it all looks like a James Bond movie!
Back on the platform, you will have the opportunity to freshen up and wash off the salt in the changing room provided with showers. Complimentary refreshments will be served before you resume the exploration of the island.
