What to expect

Have an unforgettable experience on this speedboat tour on the waters of Mauritius.

Embark at Black River on the west coast of Mauritius, which is not only popular for white sandy beaches, but also the best spot to see wild dolphins and whales. Enjoy the beautiful blue turquoise seawater of this coast and admire the playful Bottlenose dolphins. Stop for some swimming time where you can also go snorkeling in the refreshing waters near the reef.

The trip then continues outside the lagoon into high seas to see the whales in their natural habitat. Sperm Whales can be spotted all year round, while Humpback Whales can be seen from June to September during migration.

    Travelled as a couple

    We had a great morning we saw female sperms whales with their babies and very rare site of an male sperm whale which came very close to the boat ,we also saw dolphins . Great trip ,only thing we didn't like was the early start of 6am but well worth it to see the whales and dolphins

    Travelled with a group of friends

    We moesten om 5 uur klaar staan bij de receptie van ons hotel. Het was een uur rijden, dus 6 uur stonden we bij het strand waar we op de boot moesten, maar vervolgens waren de mensen van de boot er pas om 7 uur. Dat was een beetje jammer, vooral omdat het zo vroeg was. Maar de erving zelf was fantastisch, de gids/reisleiding was ook ontzettend goed! Vooral als je Thomas als gids hebt! Jonge gast vol energie en ontzettend enthousiast over de zeedieren.

Mauritius South Island Tour with Chamarel Geopark & Grand Bassin

Wild beauty abounds in Mauritius. But the island's colourful south is absolutely bursting with it. This tour takes you to a roll call of must-sees. Trou aux Cerfs volcano, a sacred lake, the seven-coloured earth of Chamarel and much more await. Sandya, one of our local guides, says, ‘The south is how I imagine my island was 400 years ago. I try to imagine how our animals lived, such as the giant tortoises and extinct dodo, and the now-protected luxuriant forests.'The fun kicks off at Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcano with a 90-metre-deep pine-studded crater. Next, we'll visit Voiliers de l'Océan, where artisans handcraft teak models of 18th century galleons. Laurna, another of our local guides, says, ‘It takes about 300 hours to complete a small boat of 70cm, while for larger boats about 1 to 3 months, depending on the size.' At the Takamaka winery, sample lychee wines and find out how discarded skins are used. This visit supports the employment of locals in a traditional business.Then, at Grand Bassin, a lake sacred to Hindus, you'll visit a temple and maybe offer prayers. A drive through Black River Gorges National Park takes you to a restaurant in Chamarel for a lunch made from locally sourced ingredients. Highlights in the park include the 100-metre drop Chamarel waterfalls and the seven-coloured earth of Chamarel. These barren volcanic dunes are surrounded by greenery.
