Mauritius, a tropical escape

Chamarel in the  South West  - A winding road leads from Case Noyale village to the coloured earths of Chamarel: an undulating landscape of different and contrasting shades of colours. The coloured earth of Chamarel is possibly the oddest sight on the island.

Curepipe, Central Inland
The town of Curepipe owes its size and prominence to the malaria epidemic of 1867, during which thousands of people fled mosquito infested Port Louis for healthier, higher ground. The bulk of Franco-Mauritians live in outlying communities and come into Curepipe mainly to shop.

Flacq - East
Centre de Flacq is one of the most important villages in Mauritius. It is the capital of the District Flacq. This meeting point for inhabitants of the East boasts the country’s largest open air market. The extremely colourful market attracts a large number of people.

Grand-Baie – This is a charming village with white sand beaches, bordered by shops, restaurants and coconut palms. Grand-Baie was the first area of the island to fully experience the tourist boom. Recently renovated, La Cuvette beach is well worth a visit.
