Mauritius in August

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

The southern and eastern parts of Mauritius can get a bit breezy, so if you’re looking to chill on the beach, it might not be the best spot—unless you’re into windsurfing or surfing, of course!

For a more enjoyable beach day in August, you’ll definitely want to check out the northern and western regions—they’re simply lovely!

If you’re in the mood for some fun, the northern area is the place to be with its lively discos, restaurants, and bars. A recommended beach to experience is Grand Gaube, a popular spot with minimal crowds.

And in the western part of Mauritius, you’re in for a treat! You can soak in stunning ocean views, spot around 140 different bird species, and enjoy a beautiful landscape filled with palm trees and crystal-clear waters. Sounds like paradise, right?

Weather in August

Diving in the crystal-clear waters of Grand Guabe is absolutely amazing in July! There’s just so much fun to be had and so many beautiful sights to see. And let me tell you, this region really shines in August—it’s simply picturesque!
