Things to do in Mauritius

not much I am afraid. I am currently working on the top issue out of this list, that is to earn money to pay for the rest of the list;)

- 365 Drive of the entire country
- Chamarel - Seven Coloured earth
- Visit more than 10 waterfalls
- Tea plantation (Bois cheri, you can visit the tea factory, if tea lover)
- View Sea Corals (glass bottom boat @ BlueBay)
- Snorkelling in blue bay
- Ganga talab visit IS THAT GRAND BASSIN?
- Casella wildlife park
- Visit Botanical Garden  and check out on Tree that Bleeds blood.
- Hiking (recommended Le pouce, Lion mountain and Piton @National forest)
- Horse racing.


That's what I've done! And I'll add: the Pieter Both, the 7 Waterfalls, other canyons, l'aventure du sucre, Château Labourdonnais, le Gri-gri, Eau Bleue... Most of the lovely things you're talking about (like sky-diving for example) are really expensive... so haven't tried them out.

great list! ill bookmark it , thanks

Really kewl list thanks! I'm repacking some items so i can do the caves n tracking!

Good list, lets see.  I have been here about 21 months:

- Chamarel - Seven Coloured earth

Done, a bit dull if I am honest.  In the end, its earth... which is coloured...

- View Sea Corals (glass bottom boat @ BlueBay)
- Snorkelling in blue bay

One of my favourite things to do, would do every weekend quite happily.

- Scuba diving around the island

Done my Open Water but then various ear problems have prevented more diving.  Hope to do more soon.

- Submarine ride

Great from a 'ohh I am in a submarine' type of thing, not that great for seeing stuff under the water if, as I know you are, you are a diver.  I would say go and do it though, how often do you get the chance to go in a real submarine...?

- Para sailing

Good, if short and expensive, fun.

- Casella wildlife park (recommended for Quad biking)

Not done the quad biking but the lion/tiger encounter is the best reason to go.  Only did the 15 minute one but worth every penny.  Again, just how many chances do you get to stroke a real live lion and tiger?!  The rest of Casella is very pretty and interesting too.

- Crocodile and Tortoise park (for sitting on Tortoise and holding crocodile in hands)

Very enjoyable, the tortoises are amazing, they look 1000s of years old.  Didn't get to hold a crocodile though.

- Visit Botanical Garden  and check out on Tree that Bleeds blood.

Done.

- Catamaran ride to another island (recommended is Gabriel and Ile de passe in south)

Ile de Gabriel cat trip is a great day out, recommended.

- Night clubs open on Weekends (recommended Grand baie and Flic en Flac)

Hmm nightclubbing here has not been that impressive so far, although the MOS party was fun

- Hiking (recommended Le pouce, Lion mountain and Piton @National forest)

Le Pouce is a great walk with amazing views at the top.  Not done the others.  Yet.

- Gambling, casinos and Horse racing is legal in the country.

Been to the horse racing, good fun.  Go into the middle bit to get the atmosphere and have a small bet - managed to come out up a bit the first time and down the second time, but at a few 10's of Rupees a time, it doesnt have to be expensive.

Where is the swimming with dolphins...?  Amazing experience.  Also, Kitesurfing?

So, looks like lots left to do!

- 365 Drive of the entire country
- 24 coloured earth, with 4 waterfalls (better than 7 coloured, less commercialised)
- Visit more than 10 waterfalls
- Tea plantation (Bois cheri, you can visit the tea factory, if tea lover)
- Under sea walk
- Sky Diving
- Ganga talab visit
- Le Val (natural Spring water, drive is amazing to this place)
- Mini Aquarium (having sharks in it)
- Whistling Rock (a natural wonder in Ocean, called Le Soffleur)
- Fox flying (or Zip Lines @ St Felix)
- Volcano visit
- Visit to Deer hunting grounds
- Hidden and isolated Beaches (way to reach is through sugar canes or internal roads)
- Visit an operational Light house (having breathtaking sunset and visit caves too, beneath, a bit risky place)
