MAURITIUS (Mauricius)
Tiny green island in the middle of the Indian Ocean which is able to offer more than just sparkly white beaches and crystal clean sea but also marvellous lagoons, the landscape with lush green of wonderful forests and palms, hills disappearing in a mist...
The island is popular with the lovers of sea, sunbathing, diving, water skiing, surfing, fishing, yachting, golf playing, and it is also an ideal place to buy lovely gifts. It is a perfect place for hiking. Tourists there are offered high quality service for one of the lowest price in the Indian Ocean. The diversity of local cuisine is caused not only by the influence of different cultures but also by the presence of sea which is another fascinating experience offered by the island. There in one place you can learn about the life rhythm of Indians, Chinese, Creols or French immigrants. It is possible to say that except for Christmas and New Year there is not high or low season in Mauritius. The visit rate of the Island changes year by year and it depends much more on outer factors than on weather.
When the writer Mark Twain visited the island, he later wrote down that the God first created Mauritius and according to it the God later created Eden. Come to see the verity of these words.
