Best At Mauritius Holidays

Situated off the coast of Madagascar, Mauritius has long been a popular choice of holiday for those seeking warm, year-round temperatures, luxurious surroundings and a degree of exclusivity that affords even the super wealthy a degree of much needed solitude. Not every holiday to Mauritius however requires the visitor to have vast financial resources and increasing numbers of visitors are discovering the timeless beauty and undeniable luxury that is the hallmark of the island.

There are many reasons why you would opt to holiday in Mauritius. It is a very popular honeymoon destination, given its romantic location, but being newly married is not a prerequisite to enjoy what the island has to offer. Many of the top Mauritius hotels and resorts have their own outstanding, luxury spa facilities, which many visitors are keen to avail themselves of to ensure a relaxing break.

Increasingly, the island has proven attractive to those seeking a round or two of golf at one of the many outstanding courses that have been developed on the island. In addition to golf, Mauritius boasts some outstanding restaurants where visitors can dine out on some prime local catch as well as a wide variety of regionally produced dishes, as well as those meals that are familiar to westernised palates.

Arguably the biggest draw on the island, aside from its luxury accommodation and facilities, is the chance for guests to go deep sea fishing. The island is perfectly placed to exploit the rich ocean depths, which are stuffed with big blue and black marlin, sharks, barracuda and various types of tuna, all offering outstanding sport and the chance of a catch of a lifetime. The region is well known for holding several species world records, including a 1,115-pound Mako shark!

So whether it is to relax in unashamed luxury, to take in a round of golf, enjoy the fabulous beaches, fish the deeps or enjoy local hospitality, Mauritius is a holiday destination well worth considering.
