South-west Mauritius

Island beauty from the water

Mauritius is a volcanic island ringed by coral reefs and some of the clearest turquoise lagoons in the Indian Ocean.

We depart from La Balise Marina in Black River, under the cliffs of Le Morne — a UNESCO World Heritage site — and cruise toward Ile aux Bénitiers and Crystal Rock.

Calm lagoon mornings, open-ocean wildlife, world-class fishing and gold-pink sunsets. Short escapes or a full day at sea — always private, always for your group alone.

  • Turquoise lagoons and coral reefs
  • Le Morne and the south-west peaks
  • Dolphins, whales and deep-sea fishing
  • Island stops and lagoon snorkelling
