Indian Ocean Mauritius
Welcome to Mauritius
Mauritius lies in the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar, surrounded by coral reefs and turquoise lagoons. Fine sandy beaches line the coast, while the interior reveals tropical forests, sugar cane fields and the Seven Coloured Earths of Chamarel, whose dunes shimmer in several shades. The island offers outstanding golf courses, excellent spas and restaurants, and private boat trips along the lagoons. Hotels range from elegant beach resorts and private pool villas to boutique hotels, whether for a honeymoon, a getaway for two or the whole family. Mauritius also combines well with a safari in South Africa or with the Seychelles.
- The drier, milder season from May to October, with pleasant temperatures of 20-26 °C, is considered the ideal time to travel, while the warmer months from November to April can occasionally bring tropical cyclones.
- Condor connects Frankfurt and Munich to Mauritius nonstop in around 11.5 hours, conveniently as an overnight flight straight to the island.
- Beyond classic beach resorts in the north and west, Mauritius is wonderfully suited to exploring by rental car or on a privately guided tour around the island.
- Mauritius combines beautifully with neighbouring Réunion or the Seychelles, ideal for travellers wanting to experience several facets of the Indian Ocean.
- As a cultural crossroads of Africa, India, China and Europe, Mauritius unites a remarkable diversity of languages, religions and cuisines within a small space.

Frequently asked questions
The drier, milder season from May to October is considered the ideal time to travel, with pleasant temperatures of 20-26 °C. In the warmer summer months from November to April it is more humid, and tropical cyclones can occasionally occur. Mauritius can be visited year-round, so we match coast and hotel to your travel dates.
German citizens do not need a visa for tourist stays of up to 90 days. Before departure, however, you must complete the digital All-in-One Travel Form online, which generates a QR code to present on arrival. You also need a valid passport. We are happy to advise you on current entry requirements when planning your trip.
Each coast has its own character. The north, with its calm lagoons and Grand Baie, combines beach with restaurants and excursions. The west, with Flic en Flac and Le Morne, is known for sunsets, dolphins and water sports. The east, with Belle Mare and Ile aux Cerfs, offers long beaches and a tranquil atmosphere, while the south is wilder, with cliffs and fewer hotels. We would be delighted to advise you personally and choose the coast to match your wishes and travel dates.
Highlights include the Seven Coloured Earths of Chamarel with their multicoloured dunes, Black River Gorges National Park with hiking trails through tropical forest, and Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008, off whose coast the optical illusion of an "underwater waterfall" can be seen. A catamaran trip to Ile aux Cerfs, deep-sea fishing for marlin and outstanding golf courses round off the offering. We plan the experiences around your wishes and arrange private excursions.
