Highlights of the month/disadvantage + advantages

September is still low season in Mauritius, so it’s a great time to travel for quiet beaches, good prices on flights and discounts on hotels. It’s a good month for kite surfing and surfing.

Père Laval Feast Day is on the 9th of September, a Christian holy day when pilgrims travel to the shrine of Ste-Croix in Port Louis to ask for miracles.

In September or October, the festival Ganesh Chathurti see Mauritian Hindus celebrating the god Ganesh with elaborate feasts.
