Cascade 500 Pieds and Alexandra Falls are two popular waterfalls here.&nbsp; The national park includes four main entrances, with two information centers located in Petrin and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/en\/black-river?utm_source=mauritius-blog&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=activities-to-do-in-mauritius-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Black River.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of the paths are well-marked, although maps are also available. You can also use the maps.me app to assist you navigate the national park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pont_Naturel\"><\/span>Pont Naturel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you enjoy exploring the outdoors and are searching for something different to do in Mauritius, make sure to check out Pont Naturel! The Pont Naturel is a natural rock formation that has been fashioned into a bridge over thousands of years by the forces of nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hiking from Le Bouchon beach through sugarcane fields, mangroves, and along a mountainous coastline is the best and most scenic route to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Le_Morne_Brabant\"><\/span>Le Morne Brabant<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Le Morne Brabant was once utilized as a haven for escaping slaves. It is now one of Mauritius&#8217; most popular hikes. The hike is rather straightforward, with some rock scrambling near the middle, but you&#8217;ll be rewarded with stunning views of Mauritius&#8217; only underwater waterfall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the hike, head down to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/en\/le-morne?utm_source=mauritius-blog&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=activities-to-do-in-mauritius-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Le Morne<\/a> beach where you can relax and enjoy the calm and quiet island life. The main beach is fairly busy on weekends, so if you want to avoid the crowd, head a little further to the beach close to Hotel Riu Le Morne.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ondrej-bocek-_NYcxwTj5FU-unsplash-768x469.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Activities to do in Mauritius - Hiking\" class=\"wp-image-7210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ondrej-bocek-_NYcxwTj5FU-unsplash-768x469.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ondrej-bocek-_NYcxwTj5FU-unsplash-768x469.jpg-300x183.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ondrej-bocek-_NYcxwTj5FU-unsplash-768x469.jpg-600x366.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@happyna?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ondrej Bocek<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/le-morne-brabant?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Tamarind_Falls\"><\/span>The Tamarind Falls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tamarind Falls (also known as Tamarin Falls or 7 Cascades) are a group of 12 waterfalls, seven of which are significantly larger than the others. The waterfalls, which are located near the village of Henrietta, are one of Mauritius&#8217; most renowned tourist attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re not a seasoned hiker, we strongly advise hiring a local guide because it&#8217;s easy to get lost and several parts are quite steep and dangerous.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Le_Pouce_Mountain\"><\/span>Le Pouce Mountain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The pinnacle of Le Pouce Mountain, shaped like a thumb, offers a 360-degree view over Mauritius Island. The hiking track is located in the commune of Petit Verger, Saint Pierre, and is quite straightforward, making it suitable for people of all fitness levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trou_Aux_Cerfs\"><\/span>Trou Aux Cerfs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Trou des Cerfs, a dormant volcano in Curepipe, is one of Mauritius&#8217; most prominent natural attractions. A paved path runs all the way around the crater, making it a popular jogging area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wish to take a break and appreciate the panoramic views of the Curepipe, Trois Mamelles, Le Pouce, and Pieter Both mountains, there&#8217;s also a small kiosk and a few benches placed around the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Waterfalls\"><\/span>Waterfalls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Chamarel_Falls\"><\/span>The Chamarel Falls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chamarel Falls, at a height of 100 meters, is one of Mauritius&#8217; tallest waterfalls. To get there, you&#8217;ll need to pay Rs 325 (US$ 7.60), which includes a visit to the Seven Colored Earth, which is made up of brightly colored sand dunes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two vistas are available here, one on the left side of the parking lot and the other further up via the steps. If you&#8217;re feeling adventurous, you can follow the trail down to the waterfall!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/olivier-graziano-kF6avtaXSI0-unsplash-768x576.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Chamarel falls\" class=\"wp-image-7209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/olivier-graziano-kF6avtaXSI0-unsplash-768x576.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/olivier-graziano-kF6avtaXSI0-unsplash-768x576.jpg-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/olivier-graziano-kF6avtaXSI0-unsplash-768x576.jpg-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@oowjee?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Olivier Graziano<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/mauritius?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eau_Bleue_Waterfalls\"><\/span>Eau Bleue Waterfalls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Located near the town of Cluny, the Eau Bleue waterfall is one of Mauritius&#8217; most underappreciated attractions. Eau Bleue is made up of six waterfalls, and although being breathtakingly gorgeous, it is rarely crowded. So, if you want to swim in crystal-clear water away from the crowds, Eau Bleue is the place to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Eureka_Waterfalls\"><\/span>The Eureka Waterfalls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Eureka Waterfalls are another place you must visit in Mauritius. Four waterfalls are within a few minutes of each other behind the Eureka House in Moka. The walk is well-marked, and admission to the waterfalls costs Rs 300 (US$ 8.60).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Rochester_Falls\"><\/span>The Rochester Falls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rochester Falls are one of Mauritius&#8217; most beautiful waterfalls, and a visit to them is a must! The waterfall is reached via a dirt road from Souillac and requires no severe hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"La_Vallee_des_Couleurs\"><\/span>La Vall\u00e9e des Couleurs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>La Vall\u00e9e des Couleurs is a nature park known for its 23 different colors of soil, waterfalls, and a variety of fun outdoor activities such as ziplining, Nepalese bridge, quad biking, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general it takes about 2 hours to visit all the main sites, but if you want to do other activities, you could easily spend the entire day there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Islands_and_Beaches\"><\/span>Islands and Beaches<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Grand_Baie\"><\/span>Grand Baie<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/en\/north-mauritius\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Grand Baie<\/a> must be included on any list of things to do in Mauritius. Located in North Mauritius, Grand Baie is a popular tourist destination with a variety of beaches, resorts, shopping malls, restaurants, and nightclubs for those who like to party till morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can choose between the popular Grand Bay public beach, La Cuvette, Pereybere, or the more distant Bain Boeuf beach, which is located a bit outside of the city center but is still worth a visit. When you think of Mauritius as a postcard-perfect picture of white sand beaches and gorgeous turquoise ocean, you will find it here in Grand Baie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ile_aux_Cerfs\"><\/span>Ile aux Cerfs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ile aux Cerfs is one of Mauritius&#8217; most popular islands and locations to visit, with a calm shallow beach and a magnificent sandbar stretching out to sea. Parasailing, kayaking, snorkeling, and relaxing on the beach are just a few of the activities available here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the island can feel a little touristy on weekends and holidays, we recommend avoiding them for the greatest experience and to escape the crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/anthony-de-kroon-2rP9dRkKgTo-unsplash-768x511.jpg.webp\" alt=\"things to do in Mauritius 2022\" class=\"wp-image-7208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/anthony-de-kroon-2rP9dRkKgTo-unsplash-768x511.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/anthony-de-kroon-2rP9dRkKgTo-unsplash-768x511.jpg-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/anthony-de-kroon-2rP9dRkKgTo-unsplash-768x511.jpg-600x399.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/anthony-de-kroon-2rP9dRkKgTo-unsplash-768x511.jpg-270x180.webp 270w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@anthony?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Anthony de Kroon<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/mauritius?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ile_aux_Aigrettes\"><\/span>Ile aux Aigrettes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ile aux Aigrettes is a small nature reserve in Mahebourg&#8217;s Bay that is home to various endangered plant and animal species. It is also one of Mauritius&#8217; top locations to visit! You can go on a guided tour of the island or a sunset sail tour of the island to swim and snorkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Le_Souffleur_and_Savinia_Beach\"><\/span>Le Souffleur and Savinia Beach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Visiting Le Souffleur and Savinia Beach is without a doubt one of the most non-touristy things to do in Mauritius.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Mauritius&#8217; most magnificent blowholes can be found at Le Souffleur! You won&#8217;t find a large crowd there very often, most likely because the road getting to this location is somewhat bumpy, but the view is well worth it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you venture a bit further, you&#8217;ll chance upon Savinia Beach, which is the island&#8217;s most secluded beach where you can enjoy the beach to yourself most of the time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pointe_DEsny\"><\/span>Pointe D&#8217;Esny<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On Mauritius&#8217; southeast coast, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mauritius-villa.com\/en\/find\/pointe-desny\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pointe <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.villa-finder.com\/en\/pointe-desny?utm_source=mauritius-blog&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=activities-to-do-in-mauritius-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">D&#8217;Esny<\/a> is a modest strip of white-sand beach. The beach is normally not too crowded due to its secluded location, making it one of our recommended beaches in Mauritius! Unfortunately, there aren&#8217;t many shady locations on the beach, but the crystal-clear ocean should be enough of a reason to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Telfair_Garden\"><\/span>The Telfair Garden<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Telfair Garden, which is located near the Souillac beach, is one of Mauritius&#8217; most beautiful tourist destinations. Take a walk along the beach to watch the waves and observe the fisherman at work, or have a beach picnic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gris_Gris_Beach\"><\/span>Gris Gris Beach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gris Gris Beach is a beautiful beach where you can see the powerful waves crash against the rocks, and it is without a doubt one of the best things to do in Mauritius! Swimming is not recommended due to the strong currents. Instead, take a walk down the beach to discover hiking trails that lead to &#8220;La Roche Qui Pleure,&#8221; beach caves, and three secret waterfalls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 2-hour quad bike tour is another fantastic activity in Gris Gris. It&#8217;s a fascinating experience for daring people who wish to see Gris Gris with a local guide and see all of the lesser-known sites away from the masses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rodrigues_Island\"><\/span>Rodrigues Island<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spend a weekend in Rodrigues Island if you want to add a little extra vacation to your Mauritius holiday. This small island is often referred to as the &#8220;old Mauritius,&#8221; making it ideal for people wanting a slower pace of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of visitors come to Rodrigues to relax, but the island also offers extraordinary landscape with plenty of options for adventurous outdoor activities including trekking, zip-lining, and cave exploring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trou D&#8217;Argent, Ile aux Cocos, Mont Limon perspective, Fran\u00e7ois Leguat Reserve, Port Mathurin, and others are among the top locations to visit in Rodrigues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rodrigues is significantly smaller than Mauritius, so you can easily see the most popular sights in a weekend, but if you truly want to discover some hidden gems, we recommend staying for at least one week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Updated: February 2026 From exploring pristine beaches, hiking up gorgeous waterfalls, or exploring the vibrant local culture, there is no shortage of activities to do in Mauritius.
