Mauritius in May

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

May marks the start of the best weather and the best time to visit Mauritius.

The island is home to the pink pigeon, the green gecko, and Aldabra giant tortoise. Here, Mauritius welcomes the adventure seeker, the honeymooner, and those seeking a pristine beach experience.

There is much to see and explore here, and some of what you can expect to see here is the daily process of sugar production, towers and forts built, and even mysterious shipwrecks. To experience authentic charm, Mahebourg is a beach to see if you want to experience a little bit of everything.

The weather is typically warm this time, so make sure the clothing you pack clothing that suits this.
