The coast of Mauritius is approximately 200 km in length. It contains 160 km of beaches. All beaches share the white, mostly fine coral sand, which forms a beautiful contrast to the colors of the sea and the blue sky. When the sun is shining the sea reflects a range of blue hues, turquoise and often even green.
Almost the entire coast line of Mauritius is surrounded by a coral reef that protects the lagoons from major wave action as well as from large dangerous fish such as sharks and barracudas. The water is always crystal clear with the temperature ranging from 23 degree c to 29 degree c depending on the time of year.
The water is generally extremely calm and warm, making all beaches in Mauritius suitable for children and non-swimmers. The coral reefs off the coast of Mauritius are often located only a few 100 meters from the shore. It is most inviting for snorkeling and diving.
Water sports to suit all requirements are offered at all the beaches in the North West and on the hotel beaches. The West Coast lends itself to the beautiful romantic sunsets. The sun rise on the east coast is meant for early risers.
The public beaches also have parking areas and sanitary facilities.
