Mauritius

Mauritius · Indian Ocean

An island adrift in the Indian Ocean: turquoise water, volcanic peaks, and the particular isolation of being surrounded by open sea in every direction.

Highlights

  • ·Water so clear and turquoise it looks rendered
  • ·Port Louis market, where African, Indian, and French cultures are all present at once
  • ·Volcanic peaks visible from the coast, the island's interior still wild
  • ·The isolation is real: open Indian Ocean in every direction, nothing for hundreds of miles
