About This Tour
Skip the resort-desk markup. This is the classic Mauritius day: a full-day catamaran cruise across the island’s largest turquoise lagoon to Ile aux Cerfs, the white-sand island everyone comes to see, priced by the seat.
You cast off from Pointe Jerome, near Mahebourg and the Blue Bay Marine Park, and sail the sheltered south-east lagoon. The crew stop for snorkelling over reef fish, cruise up to the Grande Riviere Sud-Est waterfall on the wild east coast, and often catch dolphins on the crossing. Lunch is grilled on board and the bar stays open, before free time on the beaches of Ile aux Cerfs. On the Island Spirit the route also takes in Eau Bleue, Ile Marianne and the lighthouse island of Ile aux Phares.
This is the day we recommend for couples, families and groups who want the headline of Mauritius without chartering a whole boat: good company, a proper lunch, and the island’s most beautiful lagoon in one relaxed trip.
