★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 1,798 reviews · 8 hours · from $82Our pick

Join the orange-and-white Wind Dancer from Grand Baie for an 8-hour cruise to Flat Island, Gabriel Island, and Coin de Mire. You get tea, coffee, cake, snorkeling gear, a BBQ lunch, drinks, and time to swim or relax. The English- and French-speaking crew, including crew member Paul, keeps the day friendly and well organized.

“This was THE BEST boat trip we have ever been on. The crew were incredible; professional, attentive and fun. The beaches were stunning. The crew fed the fish to help us see more of the beautiful species. We got plenty of time at the snorkeling and on the islands. On the way back from the islands the Captain took the time to stop and allow us to see the dolphins while other boats raced back to port. The food was delicious and the drink plenty. The most perfect day. We loved it. Thank you so much!”

“Prompt pick up with a lovely driver Guru who answered all our questions and provided lots of interesting information. We visited lots of sights and were not rushed.. The visit to the 27 coloured sands could have been better explained as we would have taken our water with us as we were walking for over an hour. I recommend wearing suitable footwear and take water. It’s an activity area with zip wires, quad bikes and jeeps or you can just walk. So be prepared and take your wallet as the activities are quite pricey! We enjoyed a good lunch and the a/c car was totally necessary as it was a…”

Visit Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, shop at Le Caudan Waterfront, climb Port Louis Citadel, and relax at Grand Baie. Guides such as Raj, Ravi, Robin, and Nishal are praised for friendly service, though guiding depth can vary.

“This was an enjoyable day with a variety of things to see, and made very good by the attitude of my excellent guide/driver called Ravine, who drove me for the second day in a row. The restaurant I was taken for a meal (not included) was quite good but rather expensive (not as good as the meal on the southwest tour).. If you have the time available, I would recommend taking both the northern and southwestern tours. However, if your time is limited and you can only manage one of the tours, then I'd suggest opting for the southwest tour.”
