For many, Mauritius is close to being a paradise due to its beauty and the fun and satisfaction it can give to its visitors.

Not only the superb beaches will add to your fun of staying in Mauritius, but the adventure sports and water sports will enhance your stay even more.

First of all, trekking in Mauritius will let you explore the natural beauty of the island. Fans of the nature will be surely delighted with this unique experience. One of the most famous places for trekking in Mauritius is the Black River Gorges. The Black River Gorges spreads over an area of approximately 6,750 hectares providing you with probably the best trekking opportunity in Mauritius.

The ride is around 1 hour and you will be able to discover the pineapple fields on your way. On the other hand, another mountain biking route includes the Chamarel Down Hill where you will admire the waves sweeping the beaches from the top.

As Mauritius is well known for its beautiful sea, diving is one of the most sought water activities by visitors. There are various diving spots around Mauritius and you will be guided by a team of experienced professionals who will make your ride a wonderful experience. There are around 23 diving centres in Mauritius, most of them registered under the MSDA (Mauritius Scuba Diving Association).
