Mauritius
Cast adrift in the Indian Ocean, where continents combine, Mauritius is a marvellous mix of African, Indian, European and Oriental inuences.
The island is surrounded by a huge reef sheltering the shallow lagoons, whose waters meet a shoreline of sugar white beaches. These lead to sugar cane plains, waterfall pools and forests of ebony and eucalyptus before nally reaching the peaks of bare and broken rocks that make a moonscape of the mountains. It is little wonder that Mark Twain deemed this the prototype on which paradise was fashioned. The capital Port Louis has an international atmosphere, the coastline is home to a collection of ne hotels, there is a choice of world class golf courses and the beaches and lagoons are havens for watersports. Not least, the island is home to some of the friendliest people, so you can expect the very best hospitality. Mauritius makes a marvellously relaxing home for your luxurious holiday, or perhaps use the easy ight connections from East and Southern Africa to twin it after somewhere equally exotic and arguably more adventurous. A spell under the vast skies of Africa, on safari in the nest game reserves, could be the perfect contrast to lazy island days. With the most cosmopolitan character of all the Indian Ocean islands, Mauritius o ers a ne range of holiday styles in a stunning tropical setting.
