Mauritius, the country behind the beach

The nature of Mauritius has long been an asset to be exploited rather than protected. Land was the only economic resource since the colonization of the island - exploitation of ebony, cane and tea. The tourism industry took over in the second part of the 20th century, modifying the coastal landscape and threatening its fragile ecosystem. Awareness of the need to protect and preserve what remains of the “virgin” space has begun to win over Mauritian citizens in recent years, particularly after the Covid health crisis. It is in this eco-responsible approach that two Mauritian forties, Anne and Elodie, created their local agency to show visitors that there is indeed a country behind the beaches with an exceptional nature. We set off to discover Mauritius with our two accomplices taking a walk off the beaten track in national parks and nature reserves with lush vegetation, dizzying waterfalls, endemic plants and animals that still preserve their unique ecosystems and outings. canoeing to observe dolphins in their natural environment without forgetting to take a dip in the crystal clear water lagoons protected by exceptional coral reefs.
