With approximately 330 km of coastline, you won’t have to go far to find a beach in Mauritius.

This, along with the turquoise water and the endless white sandy beaches is what make Mauritius an ideal beach holiday destination. But what are the best beaches in Mauritius?

Dubai is the city of spending. Whether it’s designer labels, gold, electronics, or luxury items, the emirate is absolutely bursting with shopping malls big and small. Shopping is almost a national pastime for locals and tourists alike.
We’ve all been there. You’ve just had an incredible meal with outstanding service at a restaurant on holiday and then the tipping dispute begins. Do you leave 10%? 15%? More? Less? Tipping rules vary by country and region. A lot. Are you in a country where tipping is required? Or is it appreciated but not expected? Or is it in fact virtually unheard of?
Relentless competition between airlines has provided travellers with low fares but in return has also led to cramped spaces, undesirable food and new luggage limits. Glamourous? Not so much. It’s probably the last word used to describe air travel but maybe not if you’ve ever travelled with one of these luxury airlines.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover” – Mark Twain
