I traveled the entire island on my own, without a tour guide and with three moms. We have tons of experiences and even more photos. This gallery shows the true face of the island, how we got to know it, and how we fell in love with it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Let's pour ourselves some pure Mauritian rum \u2013 most people fly to this island for them. And I'm not surprised at all. Beaches in Mauritius<\/strong> They are like they were cut out of the most kitschy travel catalog, with the only difference being that here you can see the incredible beauty you are looking at yourself<\/strong>, without filters. From the endless white sand and the beneficial shade of horsetails at our beach base in Flic en Flac<\/strong>, through a picture-perfect idyll in Trou aux Biches<\/strong>, to wild romance in the south under a majestic and energy-filled wall Le Morne<\/strong>. And what if you board a catamaran and head towards the Northern Virgin Islands like Flat Island<\/strong> or Gabriel Island<\/strong>! There, you'll be greeted by such clear water and shallow turquoise lagoons that you'll be speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

We are approaching our destination! This moment, when the silhouette of Gabriel Island is clearly drawn on the horizon for the first time, was accompanied by an absolutely surreal backdrop of giant clouds on our cruise. The catamaran trip from Grand Baie can sometimes make your stomach churn quite a bit on the waves, but these views will make you forget about any seasickness in an instant.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A view that will take your breath away after arriving by catamaran. The water on Flat Island is so clear that you don't even need a snorkel to see the bottom.

Gabriel Island in all its wild beauty. Unlike neighboring Flat Island, the nature here seems a bit more raw. Just walk a few dozen meters away from the place where the excursion catamarans are anchored, and you can enjoy this wonderful peace with a view of the iconic Coin de Mire rock on the horizon.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The majestic Gunners Quoin (Coin de Mire). You'll sail past this iconic rock, which looks like a giant wedge driven into the ocean, on every trip to the Northern Isles.

Le Morne Beach has an energy that is completely unique thanks to this giant rock wall behind it. It is one of the best places on the island to wait for the sunset, as the colors of the sand and the calm lagoon begin to change into this perfect spectacle as evening approaches.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The moment when Le Morne beach becomes empty and quiet. The sun has already disappeared, but the sky still plays with the most beautiful pastel colors for a few minutes. These are exactly the moments that make it worth traveling without a travel guide \u2013 you don't rush anywhere and just enjoy the end of the day with your feet in the warm sand.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Flic en Flac in all its beauty and length. The brilliant thing about this beach is that instead of palm trees, there is this giant forest of horsetails. When you've had enough of the tropical sun, you can simply move a few meters away with your blanket to the shade of the green grass. And as a bonus, you still have this great view on the horizon.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Trou aux Biches in its entire length. This place is famous for the fact that the sea here is incredibly calm and shallow thanks to the coral reef.

Do you think Mauritius is all about lazing around in an azure lagoon and sipping drinks? Well, I'll quickly prove you wrong. As soon as you turn the helm inland, you'll be engulfed by the untamed jungle and pure adrenaline will flow through your veins. A tough rope-pulling adventure awaits you to the highest peak Piton de la Petite Rivi\u00e8re Noire<\/b>, conquering the steep, perpendicular walls of the iconic Le Morne<\/b>, endless views of monumental canyons Black River Gorges<\/b> and roaring waterfalls falling from giant rocks directly into the green embrace of the rainforest. This is the true, raw face of the island, which you simply won't see from the windows of luxury resorts. Put on your proper shoes, gather your courage and come see the places where the height and beauty will regularly make your head spin!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The dusty path slowly leads you through dense greenery to the foot of the mountain, and at that moment you have no idea how much this rock will test your physique in just a few dozen minutes.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This is where all the fun ends and pure rock scrambling begins. The second part of the trek beyond the green gate is an uncompromising climb on bare rock, where you literally climb on all fours and belay only with your own hands, a firm grip and tree roots. No ropes, no belay, just you, the rock and a good dose of adrenaline. But the goal is worth the effort!<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

So this is it \u2013 the geographical ceiling of the whole of Mauritius! The highest point itself, Piton de la Petite Rivi\u00e8re Noire (828 m above sea level), is actually an inconspicuous dirt patch in the middle of lush vegetation with a few pegs and a wooden bench. No giant concrete monument, just pure nature.

Gorges Viewpoint, or the Jurassic Park of Mauritius. This epic valley opens up before you in the Black River Gorges National Park. Endless forests, deep canyons and the distant ocean on the horizon. Standing here and watching the giant green hills, you almost expect a pterodactyl to fly out from behind the clouds. The ideal place for a short break and a breather before exploring further inland.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In this part, I will take you to the majestic giant tortoises<\/b> on a protected island Isle of Aigrettes,<\/strong>\u00a0where you can look these centuries-old, peaceful giants straight in the eye. Then we will stop together at the famous giant water lilies<\/b> in the botanical garden Pamplemousses<\/strong>, which look like gigantic green baking tins on the water surface. But the absolute biggest, albeit incredibly heartbreaking, unique one awaits you in SSR Botanical Garden in Curepipe<\/strong>. That's where it grows. the loneliest palm tree in the world<\/b>. It is demonstrably the last living specimen of its kind on Earth \u2013 it is completely alone, scientists cannot clone it, and it has been quietly waiting for its inevitable end for decades.

The loneliest palm tree in the world. This is arguably the last living specimen of its species (Hyophorbe amaricaulis) on our entire planet. It grows in the SSR Botanical Garden in Curepipe, is strictly fenced and protected from cyclones by metal scaffolding.

A geological wonder that will totally blow your mind. The Seven Colored Earth in Chamarel is a unique place in the world. These rolling dunes were formed by the weathering of volcanic lava and, thanks to the iron and aluminum content, they play with incredible shades from red to purple to brown. The funniest thing is that even if you deliberately mix the colors, they will naturally separate after the first rain.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Local resident turtles! You will meet these giant beauties right in the Seven Coloured Land area, who have their own wonderful grassy enclosure. Watching one of these centuries-old giants taking a break by the water with complete peace is a great bonus to the whole trip. These turtles are simply a living icon of Mauritius and you simply won't get tired of seeing them in such a beautiful environment.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A view that will blow your mind. From this perspective, the Land of Seven Colours stands out even more, especially when these beautifully green Mauritian hills rise in the background under the azure blue sky. The sun plays incredibly with the colorful waves of sand here \u2013 just wait a moment to see the shadows changing under the clouds, and the entire lunar landscape in front of you changes shades as you go.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The visual highlight of your Mauritian adventure. These rich, red-purple hues of the dunes in Chamarel will make you want to press the shutter button again and again until you run out of space on your card. It's the best proof that Mauritius has a thousand different faces, each of which is worth exploring on your own, without a tour guide!<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hundreds of meters of pure awe. Chamarel Falls is the highest on the island and the view from the lookout will definitely take your breath away. The huge mass of water here uncompromisingly rolls over the edge of an ancient lava flow and falls straight into the impenetrable green jungle. Standing here huddled together and listening to the roar, you fully realize the raw power of Mauritian nature.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Encountering giants in La Vanille Park. Unlike \u00cele aux Aigrettes, where you see turtles scattered randomly in the forest, here in La Vanille you can see dozens of them in one place. They are giant tortoises (Aldabra) imported from the Seychelles, some of which weigh over 250 kilograms and still remember the century before last. At times, you feel like you are visiting a real Jurassic Park!<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The highlight of the day \u2013 feeding the turtles! As soon as you buy a sprig of green branches at the entrance, you will immediately become the center of the universe for these giants. Because of the juicy leaf, these seemingly lazy creatures can stretch their necks incredibly and open their mouths funny. Rubbing their necks is pure therapy that will make you and your mom laugh the whole time.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Don't dip your toes in the water here. Originally built as a crocodile farm, La Vanille Park is home to hundreds of Nile crocodiles of all sizes in large breeding tanks. Watching these giant, motionless predators, their mouths half-open and full of sharp teeth, lazily waiting on the shore, is sure to give you goosebumps.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This handsome creature with the iconic black and white striped tail is a ring-tailed lemur. In the La Vanille Nature Park, you can observe these agile and incredibly curious creatures up close, as they deftly rest or jump on thick, twisted vines. Their piercing orange gaze will immediately captivate you. Catching them for a photo like this, calmly amidst the branches, is a great catch that simply cannot be missed in this animal gallery!<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The sacred Grand Bassin Lake (Ganga Talao) in all its mysterious beauty. This crater lake surrounded by wildlife in the heart of the island is the most sacred place for Mauritian Hindus. The air is intensely fragrant with incense sticks and gigantic statues of deities rise on the horizon. When the water calms down and these golden temples are reflected in it, the place has an incredible spiritual energy.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fascinating details on the shores of Grand Bassin. The statue in the foreground, draped in a bright orange, depicts the famous Indian spiritual teacher Sai Baba. Just behind him, on a pedestal, stands the three-headed Hindu deity Dattatreya, accompanied by a sacred cow. The entire shore of the sacred lake is literally dotted with these shrines, where you can quietly watch local believers leave offerings of flowers, fruit, or burning incense sticks. An amazing sight that will immediately immerse you in the local culture.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

a beautiful white marble statue of Lord Buddha, which you will find just above the lake itself. In Hindu tradition, Buddha is worshipped as one of the reincarnations of the god Vishnu, so he has his place of honor in this sacred complex. The purity of the white stone and the absolute peace that radiates from this statue perfectly describe the atmosphere of the entire Grand Bassin.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n
