About six hours from Mumbai or Bengaluru, with no visa to arrange. Mauritius pairs reef-sheltered lagoons with volcanic peaks, and its Indian heritage means familiar food and festivals.

Discover
A coral reef encircles most of the island, so the water inside is calm and clear — ideal for snorkelling, glass-bottom boats and first-time divers.
Nonstop flights from Mumbai and Bengaluru, and free entry on arrival, make it one of the simplest faraway-feeling holidays to plan.
Most Mauritians have Indian roots: Divali is a public holiday, Hindi and Bhojpuri are widely understood, and vegetarian food is everywhere.
Recommended length: 6–8 nights
Many travellers stay at one resort and take day trips — the island is about two hours from end to end.
Choose the right season
October is the driest month, and October to December and April are the sweet spots. January to March is hot, humid and the wettest stretch, with the highest cyclone risk.
Imagine the experience
The UNESCO-listed mountain above the island’s most beautiful lagoon.
The Seven Coloured Earth dunes and a 100-metre waterfall in the south-west hills.
A catamaran day to Crystal Rock and Île aux Bénitiers, with snorkelling stops.
Giant Victoria water lilies and centuries-old trees in the island’s botanical garden.
