Top Mauritius Kid-Friendly Tours

Soak in the beauty of Mauritius’ waters—and explore a side of the region many visitors miss—on a full-day Île aux Cerfs catamaran cruise. As you set sail, admire the scenery from the water's edge. At Île aux Cerfs, you can choose to swim, snorkel, or simply sunbathe on the beach at your leisure; activities such as parasailing may be available for an optional upgrade. A local lunch and drinks are also included.

Explore a side of Mauritius that other tourists rarely see. Swim with wild dolphins in their natural habitat using provided snorkel gear. With a small group, you’re sure to receive personalized attention from your guide, who also provides live commentary on how to respectfully approach these marine mammals. A snorkeling session on the coral reef ends a perfect morning on the water.

See whales off the coast of Mauritius from a speed boat with your small group. Your guide will use a hydrophone in the water to locate where the whales are. Maintaining a safe distance to keep from disturbing the whales, you will be close enough to get some great photos on this late morning excursion.

Enjoy a full day of relaxation with this boat tour through the Benitier Islet. Experience the incredible opportunity to swim with dolphins in their natural habitat in the warm water of Mauritius. Then travel to Crystal Rock to admire marine life while snorkelling and admiring the view of Le Morne Mountain. After a busy morning, relax and indulge with a lunch of local delicacies and unlimited beverages.

For a magical and unforgettable day, join this unique private boat tour. Your day will begin early in the morning when you are picked up by a private speed boat and transported in style to the magnificent location of Benitier Island. This tour starts early to be the first to see the dolphins and observe them peacefully in their natural habitat while swimming nearby, followed by snorkelling next to the the aquarium and the famous crystal rock. Later in the day, a degustation lunch is served, followed by a tasty seafood barbeque accompanied by drinks.

Instead of booking separate excursions, experience Mauritius’ marine life three times in one day on this combination ocean adventure. Travel by speedboat to Tamarin Bay for the chance to encounter wild dolphins in their natural habitat, then stop at a popular snorkeling site known as “The Aquarium” to explore colorful fish and reef life. In the afternoon, head offshore to look for humpback and sperm whales in the open sea.
