Grand Baie
Grand Baie on Mauritius’s northern coast is the island’s most accessible and socially vibrant base — a natural harbour of turquoise water surrounded by restaurants, water sports operators, and boat charter companies that provide access to uninhabited islands, dolphin watching, deep-sea fishing, and snorkelling reefs. The west coast at Flic en Flac adds a calmer, more local character with spectacular sunsets over the lagoon and some of the island’s finest restaurants. The combination of reef, culture, and coastline makes Grand Baie the best single base for a first-time Mauritius visit.
