Other Quaint Places To Visit In The South Of Mauritius

The southern coast of Mauritius is known for it�s natural beauty � many holiday makers to Mauritius choose to do a scenic drive from Mahebourg down to Baie du Cap, simply because the scenery is unrivalled even in most places within Mauritius (let alone the world).

There�s a remarkably diverse range of scenery here � sugar canes and mountains meet picturesque harbour villages � there�s even waterfalls and forests to keep your camcorder more than busy. 

There�s also a rather incredible wildlife reserve island on lle aux Aigrettes � it�s possible to book a boat to visit the island (tours are available � you can request more information from the resort you stay it to book).

Along the North/South border is Bambous Virieux, with a small population of under 3,000 � there really aren�t many places to stay here but it�s known for the Vieux Grand Port which some visitors to Mauritius decide to tour � the Frederik Hendrik Museum is here (admission is free) which showcases the Dutch influences of Mauritius.

There�s not too much in the way of developments, or even points of interests along the rest of Southern Mauritius � some of the destinations you�ll come over include Riviere des Anguilles, Souillac, Pointe aux Roches and Bel Ombre.
