The paradise island of Mauritius is a dazzling precious gem in the archipelago of the Mascarene Islands in the Indian Ocean to the east of Madagascar. The author Mark Twain recounted that heaven must have been made in the image of Mauritius, a very fitting tribute to the glory of the superb atoll.
Mauritius lies in close proximity to its sister volcanic atolls of Rodrigues and Rèunion, which are now no longer active, although the volcanic hotspot is currently located under the island of Rèunion. Mauritius is know for its famous now extinct bird the dodo, hunted to its demise by ships crews hungry for fresh food.
Before it's independence in 1968, the island had been the prize of Dutch, French, and subsequently British rule. It is this happy mélange of cultures and languages that makes the island of Mauritius what it is today. With a population of just over a million inhabitants, the official language is English, however, the French language in a Creole form dominates in the schools, media and day-to-day life of this beauteous isle.
Since its independence Mauritius has turned from a low impact farming community, into a financial, industrial and tourist destination par excellence. It's very easy to see why Mauritius is such a favoured holiday destination. In fact it is the archetypal desert island beauty of emerald palm fringed jungle, soft gleaming white sandy beaches, and lapping warm turquoise waters. You can feel the warmth of the sun and the sand just by looking at the pictures of this tropical heaven.
In the busy world we live in, the time we have to take a holiday becomes increasingly important. The health benefits of taking a holiday are phenomenal, from the stress relief, and relaxation it affords, to the many therapeutic benefits of increased natural sunlight.
The fantastic climate of this perfect petite bijoux of an island is tropical, with a cooler winter from May to November, and a long hot summer from September to May. There are anti-cyclones and cyclones, which affect the island throughout the year, but mainly during the winter and summer months. Winters are warm and dry in Mauritius, and summers are hot, wet and humid.
It is the perfect winter getaway destination for visitors from the northern hemisphere who can escape the cold icy blasts of a winter chill, for the tranquil warmth of a Mauritian winter. The small central plateau of the island is cooler than the coastline, with the west coast of the island the hottest, with the east the windiest. October is the driest month of the Mauritian year and the coolest is July.
