15 Take an Undersea Walk: Don a divers’ helmet and walk
on the sandy bottom of a lagoon in the north of Mauritius
to discover the island’s amazing underwater world after a
motorboat transfer from Grand Baie. You don’t even need
to be able to swim. The helmets are fed fresh air from
solar-powered electric compressors.
16 Scoot around in a Subscooter: Share the experience of
riding below the waves in a Subscooter with your partner
and discover the marine flora and fauna of Mauritius. Easy
to pilot, the underwater scooter has a steering wheel, two
accelerator pedals and a single button to dive or go up to
the surface.
17 Do a skydive: Take a leap into the void and enjoy
exceptional views of Mauritius from on high. Starting
with a 25- minute flight up to 3,000 metres for aerial
sightseeing across the island’s north, it’s then time for a
tandem jump with an experienced instructor for a heart-
racing one-minute freefall until the parachute opens for a
five-minute descent.
18 Flyn’Dive: Soar and swoop over the waves on a jet of
water at Grand Baie, with no prior experience. A certified
and experienced instructor explains how it works during
a full safety briefing you strap into the Flyn’Dive-Board
and a swim vest. The Flyn’Dive board is connected to a
20 Tea tasting
powerful water pump by a hose, creating a water jet that
will lift you softly or send you soaring into the air.
19 Helicopter Tours: A helicopter ride from the SSR
International Airport offers an incredible way to view
Mauritius’s spectacular diversity of landscapes, from deep
meandering valleys to mountains, natural reserves and the
stunning lagoon that encircles the island.
20 Tea tasting: Discover the history of tea in Mauritius
at Bois Chéri, the island’s biggest tea producer that
has been operating since 1892 and produces a range
of flavoured teas, green teas and herbal teas. Enjoy a
cuppa during your visit while taking in the panoramic
view of the stunning south of Mauritius. Domaine des
Aubineaux, a beautiful colonial house built in 1872, has
been transformed into a museum dedicated to the history
of Mauritian Tea.
21 Rum tasting: Learn about rum distillation and
maturing at the Rhumerie des Mascareignes distillery
before sampling the locally-produced rum. It is located
at Le Chateau de Labourdonnais, which embodies
the concept of “a castle at the heart of nature” and
has more than 50 hectares of land under cultivation,
producing a variety of tropical fruits.
