More About The Indian Ocean Islands
The island of Mauritius, set approximately 2,000km off the south-east coast of the African continent, is a beautiful coastal paradise simply waiting to be discovered. It is the island’s warm coastal waters and picturesque beaches that immediately grab your attention, but there is so much more to Mauritius than simply lazing on the beach. Inland the volcanic peaks and forests create a haven for hikers, cyclists and nature lovers. Golfers will be spoilt for choice with a host of quality golf courses offering not only exceptional golfing conditions, but remarkable coastal vistas as well.
Deciding on which side of the island to stay and which of the many luxury resorts and boutique hotels to choose, can be a daunting task. As experts in travel to the Indian Ocean Islands, we are on hand to make the decision that much easier, offering expert advice on which property and region are best suited to you and your interests.
While often referred to as one island, the Seychelles are in fact an archipelago of 115 islands. Mahé, the gateway to Seychelles and the hub where most travellers must pass, offers a fascinating introduction into life on the islands which local residents enjoy. While Mahé is worth exploring, it is on one of the many remote islands where the true magic awaits. Seychelles is best known for its private island resorts and luxury beach getaways, offering a more exclusive and remote island escape when compared to Mauritius. This makes it the perfect choice for honeymooners looking for the ultimate luxury escape or families keen to spend quality time together in a remote setting. Surrounding the islands are hundreds of coral reefs offering spectacular diving and snorkelling, while the beautiful coastal conditions provide the perfect setting for other ocean activities like sailing, kayaking and stand up paddleboarding.
