Kite surfers, paragliders and deep-sea fishermen flock to windswept La Morne, a small village on the southwest side of Mauritius. Le Morne Brabant Mountain, a dramatic basaltic rock peak dotted with caves that once harbored runaway slaves, presides over luxury resorts and a wide beach widely regarded as the best on the island. Throw in a shimmering turquoise lagoon and gorgeous sunsets and calling the town "paradise" doesn't seem like a cliché.

. Dicovering the Morne Brabant - The slave route The Morne Brabant is a mountain of the south-west of Mauritius, on the peninsula of the Morne. Declared World Heritage by UNESCO since July 6, 2008, the site is a sanctuary for runaway slaves and is a strong cultural and patrimonial symbol for every Mauritian. Being on private land, Le Morne Brabant is one of the most preserved and wildest Mountains of the island. It includes a multitude of endemic species, such as the rare Trochetia Boutonania, and its red flaming flower. The hike to the summit of Morne Brabant lasts between three and four hours, depending on the homogeneity of the group. Once on top, we discover the breathtaking panoramic views on the west and south-west lagoons and part of of the island.
This place has magic. Just a beautiful rock overseeing the blue coral sea. It is very high a gives a great view to all sides. On top a cross.

Vicky is an excellent person, he took us to a tour southwest of the island and exceeded our expectations as we visited more places than we thought so. He is always concerned about their clients comfort and satisfaction. He also did our transfer back to the airport. Fair price, very professional, speaks many languages. We are glad we found Vicky Tour!

I used this company for both airport transfers & day tours. Apart from a delay with pick up from the airport (our flight arrived early), everything went smoothly. The company responded promptly to emails and are very accomodating in terms of tailoring tours. I would highly recommend the day tour to the south of the island. I did a couple of tours & the trip to the south of the island was the highlight of my entire trip.

Welcome to la Vallee des Couleurs, haven of peace and beauty. Forget all your worries and daily stress and let yourself be carried away by the mystery of this fantastic Panorama. La Vallee des Couleurs is an extraordinary place where you can have the opportunity to contemplate a beautiful land, which is composed of twenty-three colours. A lush vegetation, birds, animals, endemic plants, ponds, rivers, Waterfalls and the multicoloured earth form this magnificent landscape. Explore this real beauty of nature with a stroll on foot, trip on the different types of quad bike, buggy or doing a safari in our Range Rover. You can also visit "La Vallee des Couleurs" by using the different points of zip lines which covers the entire park. Our zipline of 1.5 kms is among the longest in the world and the longest in the Indian Ocean, which will give you a "once in a lifetime" sensation, where photos will be taken as souvenir. The Nepalese Bridge of 350 metres covers is a sensational one, where the adventurous person will be able to see the forest as well as animals passing by like the deer and the macaques. La Vallee des Couleurs" is a pleasure for all senses: the songs of birds and the sounds of Waterfalls are like the sweetest music and the picturesque view is a pure delight for the eyes. The restaurant of the valley provides delicious meals that will ravish you if ever you feel hungry.
I expected more from the place than what I actually got to experience. The park in itself is not huge. We went on a hot sunny day and mind you, there were not many shaded areas where one could chill under the scorching sun. Sunscreens and hats were of no use, ended up with bad sun burn. All activities at the park were ridiculously priced. As a local, I believe I was charged tourist prices. 1h quad cost more than 2k per person and you only went round in the park (that included stop times at the different stop points -waterfall, couloured earth, barely there petting farm). I would instead suggest for someone to do the park by foot and thus avoid the ridiculous quad prices. Coming to 23 couloured earth, I could barely count 10 on it. Only positive side of the park would be the zipline. Amazing experience but lasts less than 1 min.

Our curiosity about the world is inexhaustible. Discover the heart of Mauritius with Yanature, on our authentic Hiking, Bird-watching or Trail-Running excursions. Since the creation of Yanature in 2004, we've constantly be busy opening new tracks through our deepest Forests, to our wildest Mountains peaks. There is still plenty to discover, and our state of mind has stayed the same.
Yanature with Yan (the guide and founder) was a great experience. La Morne at first appears to be a gentle walk up an inclined hill, but after you have reached the half way point and through a gate in turns to an activity that uses...MoreHi Iain, Thanks for your much appreciated review! We are really happy to hear you enjoyed our services and Yan's services! Best regards from the team!

You can see the rock when you take a boat ride to Ile Aux Benitiers. The crystal clear water around it is amazing and the big rock in the shallow waters looks unique.

Curious Corner of Chamarel is a house of illusion and mystery sure to awaken your curiosity! Visit the interactive Exhibit Centre, get lost in a maze and experience a world of mind bending fun, browse the many curios in the Puzzles & Things Shop and enjoy the delights on offer (Pyramid Pizzas,Donut Burgers to name a couple)at The C3 Café & Bar, set in a beautiful tropical garden.We are located just opposite the iconic Seven Coloured Earths. Last entry at 16h15.
I have been to something similar in Thailand, this was smaller but better as there was staff assisting at every stage to click photos/ explain the optical illusion. It takes about 2hrs. Great photo opportunity esp. if you are with family/ friends.

The mountainous topography of Heritage Nature Reserve (ex Frederica Nature Reserve) offers breath taking views, vast plains where stags parade majestically, impressive Waterfalls and intact natural beauty. The scenery is overwhelming and can be discovered through several activities: quad biking, buggy, safari 4x4 and trekking. We have two sessions per day: Morning 9h00 Afternoon 13h00
We drove a quad and wondered through the forest a breath taking experience specially the walking part through the large trees and you will get to see lots of deers. And what makes it even better the tour guides there are really knowledgeable and friendly
