Mauritius

Mauritius is a lush island nation in the Indian Ocean, known for its volcanic landscapes, white-sand beaches, and rich cultural blend of African, Indian, French, and Creole influences. Cruise ships typically dock in Port Louis, the vibrant capital, where travellers can explore markets, colonial landmarks, and nearby nature parks. Due to its smaller port size, Mauritius is primarily visited by small ships and luxury cruises, offering an uncrowded, upscale experience. From botanical gardens to coral reefs, Mauritius is a tropical escape full of color, charm, and adventure.
