Best time to visit the beaches in Mauritius
January to March is the cyclone season, meaning unpredictable weather and a higher chance of rain.
While it might be sunny on certain days, I still recommend planning your trip to Mauritius outside of these months for a more enjoyable beach vacation.
The summer months in Mauritius are between November and April and winter between May and October.
On average, expect temperatures of about 15 to 28 degrees Celsius in winter and 24 to 31 degrees Celsius in summer.
Temperatures can sometimes go up to 34 degrees Celsius, especially in the north and along the coastal regions which is the perfect excuse to take a dip into the ocean!

Mont Choisy Beach
One of the longest and best beaches in Mauritius, Mont Choisy is perfect for a relaxing beach stroll.
Although great for swimming, it’s not the best for snorkeling due to the cloudy water.
If you want to have the beach all to yourself, plan your visit in the morning or on weekdays as the beach gets busy during the weekend.

Grand Baie Public Beach
Despite not being the most spectacular beach on the island, Grand Baie makes up for its wide selection of hotels, restaurants, bars, and shops.
Grand Baie Public Beach is mainly used as a departing point for island-hopping tours in the north of Mauritius. Unfortunately, due to the high amount of boat traffic, the water isn’t that clear.
Tip: Be sure to read my travel guide to Grand Baie for the best things to do.
Amenities and Practical Info:
- Food stalls serving local dishes on the beach.
- Small parking lot. If you can’t find a parking space, you can leave your car at Grand Baie Coeur de Ville Mall located about a 5-minute walk away.

La Cuvette Beach
About a 5-minute drive from Grand Baie is La Cuvette, one of the absolute best beaches in Mauritius thanks to its crystal-clear water and soft white sand.
Although there’s a sign warning that the current can be strong, I found the beach to be calm and great for swimming. Still, you need to be careful, especially if you have kids as the water isn’t too shallow.
La Cuvette is also great for snorkeling with an abundance of fish swimming just a few meters from the shore
Since the beach is very small, be sure to get there early at around 8 or 9 a.m to get a spot under the shade.
Amenities and Practical info:
- There are a few restaurants on the beach selling food and fresh fruits at decent prices.
- If you’re coming from Grand Baie, look out for the sign on the left. The beach is located about 300 meters from the main road.

Trou aux Biches
Trou aux Biches is without a doubt the most beautiful beach in Mauritius. It definitely ticks all the boxes – soft powdery white sand, crystal-clear water, and rows of palm trees that perfectly line the beach.
The water is calm making it ideal for swimming. There are also a few benches and kiosks where you can relax as well as street vendors selling local food and ice cream.
If you’re looking for a restaurant nearby, I highly recommend La Voglia Matta for the absolute best pizza in Mauritius. Their family pizza is huge and can feed at least 5-6 people.
If you prefer eating something else, there are many other restaurants that serve both local and Western food.
Amenities and Practical info:
- Bus station nearby.
- Small parking lot.

Cap Malheureux Beach
Camp Malheureux beach is where the famous red roof church is found (which you’ve most likely seen in every postcard picture of Mauritius). It’s also one of the best photo spots in Mauritius.
The water is too shallow, thus not ideal for swimming. You can instead walk along the shore to enjoy the view or have a little picnic on the beach.
Amenities and Practical info:
- Tiny parking lot.
- Helena’s café across the road serves heaping portions of delicious local dishes at affordable prices.

Pereybere is a beautiful soft white-sand beach with clear blue water which ideally would have been a favorite of mine if it wasn’t too crowded (especially during the weekend).
The right side of the beach is less crowded but, on the downside, doesn’t has much shade.
Since the beach is quite small, I recommend visiting early to get a spot. Kayaks and SUPs are available for rent at the beach.

Belle Mare is one of the best beaches in Mauritius East mainly because it has a wide range of beachfront hotels, restaurants and fun water activities on offer. Stretching over 5 km long, you’re bound to find an empty strip of sand.
The main beach is found near the Police station but has quite a few dead corals which can hurt your feet. It’s best to wear water shoes if you want to swim.

Relatively unknown to most tourists, Bras D’Eau Beach is a hidden gem on the east coast of Mauritius. The left side of the beach is better for swimming although the water isn’t that clear.
Bras D’Eau is mostly suitable for those who just want to chill without the hordes of tourists. There’s also a national park in the area where you can spend the day hiking.
Amenities and Practical info:

If you want to admire the wild side of the Mauritius beaches, make your way to Poste La Fayette.
The beach is divided into two sections, a rocky area where you can watch the powerful waves and a sandy portion where you can swim (although the water is quite shallow).
Since part of the beach isn’t protected by coral reefs, the waves can sometimes be very powerful so be sure to avoid getting too close to the edge.

Le Morne Beach
Another one of the best beaches in Mauritius is Le Morne. Made famous thanks to the underwater waterfall which you can see from the top of Le Morne Brabant mountain or by taking a helicopter tour, Le Morne beach features rows of palm trees, white sand, and turquoise water.
Le Morne Beach is a popular windsurfing and kitesurfing spot, so if you’re keen to surf, this is the place for you.

Savinia Beach
Located in the south of Mauritius, Savinia Beach is one of the most secret beaches in Mauritius! This long gold-sand beach is only accessible on foot by taking the path on the right side of Le Souffleur.
Unfortunately, you won’t be able to swim there due to the strong current, but Savinia Beach is the perfect spot to relax and watch the huge waves crash against the shore. There are also some viewpoints worth checking out here as well.
Due to its remote location, you won’t find any facilities here such as toilets and parking lots.

Blue Bay Beach
The main draw of Blue Bay Beach is the protected marine park, which is home to the largest coral garden in Mauritius with over 70 species of fish, including clownfish, butterfly fish, and even turtles.
I recommend going on a snorkeling tour of the marine park, which also includes a visit to Ile des Deux Cocos and a traditional Mauritian lunch.
If you don’t want to snorkel, you can instead hop on a glass-bottom boat and admire the corals and fish without getting wet.
With an abundance of street food vendors, ice cream trucks, and plenty of accommodations nearby, Blue Bay is one of the best places to base yourself during your trip to Mauritius.
Blue Bay Beach can get packed during the weekend, so if you want to avoid crowds, head toward the right side of the beach.
Amenities and Practical info:
- Lots of street food stalls.
- Bus station nearby.
- Three parking lots available, two are located across the beach and he third one is located about 100 meters away.

Pointe D’Esny Beach
If you’re looking for an alternative to the popular Blue Bay Beach, Pointe D’Esny is perfect for you. This pristine white-sand beach with clear blue water is one of the best beaches in Mauritius for snorkeling.
There aren’t many trees on the beach to provide some relief from the sun but it scores points thanks to its peaceful and secluded feel.
To find the beach, keep an eye out for a sign saying “Pedestrian access to the beach”. From there, just follow the narrow path to the beach.
Amenities and Practical info:
- No parking lot, so you’ll have to leave your car on the side of the road or park at Pointe Jerome embarkation point.
- No restaurant near the beach.

Gris Gris Beach
Gris Gris Beach isn’t protected by reefs, making the water choppy and unsafe for swimming but it still deserves a spot on this list thanks to its spectacular landscape that you won’t see at any other Mauritius beach.
The large waves that come crashing against the shore offer a thrilling and almost hypnotic sight. You’ll find stairs leading down to the beach if you want to take a closer look.
Make sure you venture into the pine forest to see “La Roche Qui Pleure” which translates into “The Weeping Rock”. The crashing of the waves against the cliffs gives the impression of tears flowing down the rocks, hence the name “La Roche Qui Pleure”.
If you have time, make sure to also visit the waterfalls, viewpoints, and natural pools.
Amenities and Practical info:
- The bus station is located about 1 km from the beach.
- Small parking lot.
- Only one restaurant near the beach and a supermarket about 1 km away.

La Cambuse Beach
Nestled in a secluded bay, La Cambuse Beach is relatively unknown to most tourists, thus lacking the crowds of the more popular beaches.
This beach can be quite dangerous for swimming due to the strong waves. But if you follow the path on the right side of the beach, you’ll reach a small swimming area surrounded by rocks where the water is much calmer and safer to swim in.
Amenities and Practical info:
- Local street food vendors on the beach, mainly during the weekend.
- Big parking lot.
- Changing room/toilet available.
Le Bouchon Beach

For one of the most underrated beaches in Mauritius, I recommend Pomponette Beach.
Situated on the south coast of Mauritius Island, Pomponette Beach is the perfect spot to escape the crowds. The beach is extremely long so, even if you’re visiting on a weekend, it won’t feel crowded at all.

Surinam (Riambel) Beach
This charming little beach is located in the village of Surinam in the south of Mauritius. While the water might look calm and inviting, you should be extremely careful here due to the rip current.
Surinam Beach is best visited in the evening for a beautiful sunset stroll. There’s even a small sandbar that stretches out into the sea.

It features a huge parking lot, restaurants, and food trucks selling street food and ice cream.
Thanks to the crystal-clear, stunning corals, and abundance of colorful fish, it’s one of the best snorkeling spots on the island.
I would just recommend wearing water shoes as there are a few stones along the shore.
Amenities and Practical Info:
- Restaurants and food stalls available.
- Tables and benches available.
- Big parking lot.
- Changing room/toilet available.
Rivière des Galets Beach
Located not too far from St Felix, Rivière des Galets isn’t your typical white-sand beach. What makes it unique are the black pebbles covering the whole beach strip.

Amenities and Practical Info:

Be sure to visit early in the morning before the sun gets too high or bring an umbrella as you won’t find much shade here.
Although the beach is rocky in places, it makes up for being quiet and is definitely the best beach in Mauritius if you want to get away from it all.
