What to expect

Mauritius already looks like you're in paradise, this trip just adds to the luxury. Aboard a swish catamaran, you'll discover the island's blue lagoons, thick jungle and powder-white beaches. Along the way, you'll enjoy lunch on board and have plenty of time to swim, snorkel or top up your tan.

Casting off from port, you'll set sail down the east coast of Mauritius. This patch of Indian Ocean once played host to historic naval battles between 18th Century France and England. Nowadays, it's a treasure-trove of Insta-worthy snaps. Grab your camera as you cruise past backdrops of mountains, lagoons and hidden coves.

Then, you'll tuck into a barbecue lunch before heading to Ile-aux Cerfs – translated in English as Deer Island. The deer disappeared some hundred years ago but you'll still find some of the best and most secluded beaches in Mauritius where you've free time to swim, snorkel or just spread out your towel and relax on the sand.

    Our catamaran cruise was amazing, the crew were brilliant and kept us well entertained, well fed and the drinks just kept coming. Transfer to the boat was brilliant, our driver was very knowledgeable about the island and stopped a few times on the way back for some photo opportunities. Cant thank him enough.

    Brilliant experience and fantastic value for money. Drinks always full and the food was really good. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Started off with a visit to the waterfall where we saw monkeys, then headed to the reef for snorkelling where we saw dolphins on route. After snorkelling we had a bbq lunch of fresh fish & chicken. Then headed to the beautiful lle aux cerfs and explored for 1.5 hours. Highly recommended

    There are some cheaper operators but impossible to to provide a direct comparison unless had sailed with them too. Friendly staff, great atmosphere, smaller groups than on some of other catamarans. Snorkelling gear available-brilliant getting close to the marine life.

Île aux Cerfs katamarancruise
Aktiviteter

Île aux Cerfs katamarancruise

På Mauritius føler du dig allerede som om du er i paradis, denne tur tilføjer blot lidt mere luksus. Om bord på en katamaran oplever du øens blå laguner, tætte jungle og pulverhvide strande. Undervejs nyder vi en frokost om bord, besøger det spektakulære Grand River-vandfald og får masser af tid til at bade, snorkle eller slappe af på stranden.Vi sejler ud fra havnen og sætter kurs mod Mauritius østkyst. I denne del af Det Indiske Ocean foregik nogle af de blodigste slag mellem det 18. århundredes Frankrig og England, og efter et glimt af de grønne øer, stopper vi ved Grand River South East-vandfaldet.Tilbage om bord nyder vi en barbecue-frokost, inden vi tager videre til Ile-aux Cerfs - oversat på dansk som Hjortenes ø. Hjortene forsvandt for hundrede år siden, men man finder stadig nogle af de bedste og mest afsidesliggende strande på Mauritius, hvor du får tid til at bade, snorkle eller bare sole på stranden.

Rundtur på sydlige Mauritius med Chamarel Geopark og Grand Bassin

Rundtur på sydlige Mauritius med Chamarel Geopark og Grand Bassin

Hele Mauritius er naturskøn, men den sydlige del af øen nærmest eksploderer af frodighed. Rundturen tager dig med til flere af øens topseværdigheder. Trou aux Cerfs-vulkanen, en hellig sø, den syvfarvede jord i Chamarel og meget mere venter. Sandya, en af vores lokale guider, siger: "Den sydlige del er, som jeg forestiller mig, som min ø så ud for 400 år siden. Jeg prøver at forestille mig, hvordan vores dyr levede her, f.eks. de gigantiske skildpadder og den uddøde dronte, og hvordan de nu beskyttede frodige skove var".Rundturen begynder med et besøg i Trou aux Cerfs, en sovende vulkan med et 90 meter dybt krater omkranset af fyrretræer. Derefter besøger vi Voiliers de l'Ocean, vor kunsthåndværkere fremstiller teaktræsmodeller i hånden af galeoner fra det 18. århundrede. Laurna, en anden af vores lokale guider, fortæller: "Det tager ca. 300 timer at færdiggøre en lille båd på 70 cm, mens det for større både tager 1 til 3 måneder, afhængigt af størrelsen". Derefter på Takamaka-vingården kan du smage på litchi-vin og finde ud af, hvordan det kasserede skind bruges. Dette besøg støtter beskæftigelsen af lokalbefolkningen i en traditionel virksomhed.Ved Grand Bassin, en sø, der er hellig for hinduerne, kan du besøge et templet og bede en bøn. Vi kører gennem Black River Gorges National Park og ankommer til en restaurant til frokost med lokale råvarer. Højdepunkterne her inkluderer det 100-meter høje Chamarel-vandfald og den syvfarvede jord i Chamarel. Disse spektakullære, golde vulkanske klitter er omgivet af grønne områder.
