The effort to attract visitors is proving successful and might not even need the boast of a move to duty-free status. Mauritius is the most accessible island in the Indian Ocean, with wonderful beaches and crystal-clear waters. Important, these essential ingredients of every tropical holiday destination may be, Mauritius has something extra – friendly people and vibrant cultural mix that will leave an incredible impression. There is a festival or fiesta every week and variety of ethnic cuisine. The place must be good – author Mark Twain remarked that Mauritius was before heaven, and heaven modelled Mauritius.

    Mauritius is a success story in terms of its Constitution: it is a democracy based on the Westminster model. There education and the health service are free. The literacy rate, at over 95%, is one of the highest in the world. Although English is the official language the majority of the Mauritian population speak Creole patois (a sort of a native dialect) in their daily lives, together with French if need be. English is used as a medium of education and for official and administrative purposes mainly. Apart from English, French and Creole patois, which most Mauritians use, each ethnic community have their own languages such as Hindi, Bhojpoori, Urdu, Tamil, Telegu, Chinese, etc. Mauritius is an excellent choice for the vacation..

    Mauritius is such a beautiful country. We first went there for our honey moon and every year since my husband has taken me back for our anniversary.
