With its turquoise blue lagoon and perpetual sunshine, Mauritius is a dream destination for sea excursions !

Do you want to go on one or several boat trips during your stay in Mauritius?

I’ve got you covered!

In this article, I’ve compiled the best cruises and boat trips in Mauritius .

Thanks to this guide, you’ll be able to organize your excursions super easily and save time.

Ile aux Cerfs , Ile aux Bénitiers , whale watching, swimming with dolphins , excursions in the stunning Blue Bay lagoon … There are so many wonders to discover by boat on this island.

At the end of the article, I’ll also explain how to rent a boat in Mauritius if you want to explore the lagoon in a more intimate and independent way.

So, what are the must-do boat excursions in Mauritius?

Here is my selection of the top 8!

1. Catamaran Excursion in Mauritius: The Northern Islets

Ile aux cerfs excursion from mahébourg, catamaran cruise to ile aux cerfs from trou d’eau douce, powerboat outing to ile aux cerfs, 3. the sea excursion to île aux bénitiers, 4. boat trip to see dolphins and whales, 5. glass bottom boat ride in blue bay marine park, boat rental in mauritius, other activities to do in mauritius, travel insurance for mauritius: my advice, you’re traveling to mauritius these articles will help you.

During your stay in Mauritius, don’t miss out on this superb sea excursion to the northern islets .

There are three islets off the northern coast. They are named:

• Coin de Mire
• Ilot Gabriel
• and Ile Plate

Each islet is a small nature reserve that harbors a rich terrestrial and marine flora and fauna.

Coin de Mire is renowned for its natural aquarium attracting many divers year-round. The other two islets boast exceptional beaches .

This catamaran trip in Mauritius departs from Grand Baie , at the public beach.

You will embark on a comfortable and beautiful sailing boat around 8 a.m. and set off for 8 hours of adventures.

The excursion includes:

• a breakfast
• a stopover on Ile Plate
• a stopover on Ilot Gabriel
• a barbecue lunch served on board
• a snorkeling session in the natural aquarium of Coin de Mire
• unlimited drinks.

You’ll return around 4 p.m.

The great thing about the company that organizes this excursion is that it limits access to about fifteen people per boat.

This way, you won’t end up on an overcrowded catamaran, which would make the experience much less enjoyable.

However, since availability is limited, I suggest you book as far in advance as possible because it’s a very popular excursion and spaces fill up quickly!

This little paradisiacal islet indeed attracts many visitors with its translucent turquoise lagoon and pristine beaches .

And the only way to get there is, of course, by boat !

If you’re wondering how to get to Ile aux Cerfs from Mauritius, I recommend the full-day cruise .

Some depart from Mahébourg / Blue Bay in the Southeast, and others from Trou d’Eau Douce in the East.

Setting sail from Mahébourg in the morning, you’ll embark on a 13-meter catamaran . The crew will offer you a swimming and snorkeling session in the lagoon before anchoring at Ile aux Cerfs.

Your stay in Mauritius can also be an opportunity to watch dolphins and whales in their natural habitat!

Dolphins can be seen in Mauritius throughout the year, especially along the West coast .

As for humpback whales , they pass near the Mauritian coast once a year between May and October .

Numerous providers offer sea outings to meet these marine mammals .

Beware: not all providers respect the animals. Some don’t hesitate to get very close to them and encircle them. It’s important to choose a conscious and responsible team.

This is the case with the company Dolswim , which respects the distances and follows the correct guidelines to observe the animals without causing them stress.

You should definitely try this speedboat outing they organize to watch the dolphins and even swim close to them!

The excursion lasts 3 hours . You’ll depart early in the morning from Black River and sail along the West coast hoping to encounter bottlenose dolphins and spinner dolphins. (You might also get a chance to see sperm whales and whales!).

Many travelers mistakenly think that healthcare in Mauritius is affordable and they don’t need travel insurance. But in reality, the public health system is fragile and even a simple consultation in a private clinic is very expensive!

That’s why it is essential to take out travel insurance with good medical coverage before you leave.

To travel safely , I recommend the following two insurances (both include epidemic coverage—like for Covid-19—which is very important!)

To subscribe, it’s very simple, you just need to click on the orange links below :

• ACS AMI Globe Partner : Medical insurance and repatriation
• Assur Travel Summum : Premium insurance (medical, repatriation, baggage theft, flight delay, cancellation, and more!)
