OVERVIEW

Find serenity on one of the idyllic islands that surround Port Louis on this leisurely escape. You’ll travel approximately one hour to the jetty at Pointe Maurice and board a shuttle boat to Île aux Cerfs, a tranquil island off the coast of the fisherman’s village of Trou d’Eau Douce. Learn that the 195-acre island is no longer home to cerfs, or red deer, yet remains alluring as it is covered with lush casuarina trees, colorful flowering bushes and coconut palms. You’ll appreciate the pristine white-sand beaches, which are perfect for sunbathing, swimming and snorkeling. If you are feeling more adventurous, stroll to the boathouse to rent water skis, pedal-boats, windsurfing equipment or Laser dinghies. During your visit, enjoy a complimentary lunch at the appealing Sands Grill restaurant, adding to the delightful memories of your heavenly experience on this Mauritian paradise.
