Holidays & Hotels in MauritiusOne of the most desirable destinations in the world for the discerning traveller. White, sandy palm- fringed beaches contrast with the warm turquoise waters. Lush tropical gardens of the interior and dramatic mountain scenery. Offshore coral reefs and secluded lagoons ensure that the waters are calm and perfect for swimming, diving and snorkelling.
Historically Mauritius was a haven for pirates until coming under Dutch rule in the 16th century, followed by a long period of French rule who brought in slaves to run the sugar plantations. Captured by the British in the early 1800s, Mauritius remained under Crown rule until achieving independence in 1968.
