    Full description
    For a lovely relaxing day at sea, spend a full day on this catamaran excursion to the heavenly island of Ile aux Cerfs. Sail within the safety of the largest turquoise lagoon in Mauritius along the historic wild east coast of the island. Your catamaran departs from Pointe Jerome, near the authentic village of Mahebourg and the Marine Park of Blue Bay, which is protected under the International Ramsar Convention. You can snorkel and swim before visiting the Grande Riviere Sud Est waterfall in its beautiful natural setting.  Here, some 18th-century ramparts can still be seen. They were witness to some tough corsair activities and naval skirmishes. In 1810, tis was the scene of the ”Battle of Vieux Grand Port” between the French and the English.  Enjoy a BBQ buffet prepared and served on board by your friendly crew. This consists of the famous smoked marlin mousse, grilled fish, chicken and sausages, rice and potato salads, crudités, freshly baked bread, fresh fruits, and coffee.

    It was a really great trip and a lot of fun. The crew was funny and very attentive! Unfortunately, we were only about 2 minutes at the waterfall and then drove back again. Ile aux Cerfs was also really wonderful but very crowded. All in all, a successful day! Absolutely to suggest.

    Organization was great. Driver picked us up on time, dropped us off at meeting point and picked us up again on time. So the communication works perfectly there. The crew was great. Could super English, always took care of everyone, offered and brought drinks and snacks. While snorkeling we saw very beautiful sea creatures. The island of Ile aux Cerfs is also worth seeing with its turquoise sea. The food on the catamaran was so delicious. We also had good music on board which made the trip enjoyable. All in all a successful trip. I would recommend to everyone.

    The catamaran was big and beautiful, there were about twenty of us (quite a lot). We were able to see dolphins. The crew is very friendly and takes care of you. Small cakes are distributed for breakfast and the lunch (grill) was very correct. Too bad the weather on Ile aux Cerfs was slightly short otherwise it was a very beautiful day! Thanks to the crew!
