Beyond the beaches: 5 marvellous things to do in Mauritius

In the South West, you can take a morning trip to see dolphins and even have the chance to swim with them. If you’d want to see this magical underwater world but want to keep your hair dry there is a submarine which takes you 35m deep. Or how about a sumptuous 3 course dinner served by your own private waiter served on a floated pontoon on the sea? The possibilities are endless – if you want to add one of these experiences to your trip, just ask us and we can arrange everything.

4. Play a game of a golf

Although a newcomer to the golf scene Mauritius offers some of the best and most scenic golf in the world. Where else could you tee off on a course designed by Ernie Els or Bernhard Langer with the Morne Mountains or sloping tea plantations behind you?

Most of the golf courses are attached to a hotel, so if you are really keen to play on a specific course then it’s usually best value to stay at that hotel as well. However, most allow passes to go and play for the day so you can definitely enjoy a few different courses throughout your stay on the island.
