The north coast, from the water

Dive into crystal-clear water at Coin de Mire or Trou Bleu, depending on the sea's mood, and discover colourful corals and marine life. If conditions permit, the adventure continues to Flat Island for swimming and relaxation. Alternatively, head to the tranquil mangroves and Bernache Island for exploration and a laid-back lagoon experience.
Enjoy a freshly prepared BBQ lunch on board, with Mauritian flavours in a stunning island setting. You are back at Sunset Boulevard by mid-afternoon, with unforgettable memories of the northern coast.
Good to know
A chapel for the camera: the red-roofed Notre-Dame Auxiliatrice of Cap Malheureux was built in 1938 and is said to be the most photographed church in Mauritius.
A mountain shaped like a sailboat: Coin de Mire rises from the sea about 8 km off the coast, and its high sea cliffs are a nesting ground for tropicbirds.
A nursery of the lagoon: mangroves shelter young marine life and help protect the coast.
Why guests choose this day
✔ A flexible route that follows the sea, so you always swim in the best spot of the day
✔ A BBQ lunch on board, with Mauritian flavours
