Tour Description
Set sail on a serene and scenic journey along the island’s breathtaking southeast coast with our Île aux Cerfs Catamaran Cruise — one of Mauritius’ most unforgettable full-day experiences.
Your day begins early, with an optional hotel pickup around 07:00 or a direct check-in at 09:00 in Trou d’Eau Douce, a picturesque fishing village. Step aboard a speedboat that will whisk you across shimmering waters to the Grand River South East (GRSE) Waterfall — a tranquil spot where lush greenery meets cascading waters. Keep your eyes open for playful monkeys and fruit bats along the riverbanks before returning to the marina to board your catamaran.
As the sails rise, enjoy the gentle rhythm of the sea breeze as you glide along the east coast of Mauritius, stopping at selected snorkeling spots rich with coral gardens and marine life. Snorkeling gear and life jackets are provided, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience for all.
At midday, your crew will serve a delicious barbecue lunch on board — featuring grilled chicken, fish, and sausages, accompanied by salads, pasta, and fries, along with unlimited beverages including water, juice, soda, beer, and local rum.
Once anchored at Île aux Cerfs, you’ll have the freedom to explore at your own pace. Wander along the island’s powdery white beaches, take a refreshing swim, or simply unwind under the tropical sun. For those seeking adventure, optional activities such as parasailing, tubing, or undersea walking are available through local operators (at additional cost).
As the afternoon draws to a close, relax on deck with a cool drink as your catamaran sails back to Trou d’Eau Douce, wrapping up a day filled with sunshine, sea, and unforgettable memories.
