The experience
Meet the raw, untamed beauty of Mauritius.
Explore Mauritius’ wild south coast through dramatic cliffs, powerful ocean views, a river and waterfalls — a strikingly different side of the island.
Walk along the cliffs and take in the energy of the Indian Ocean before continuing to the natural pool, a hidden waterfall and the secret cave, tide allowing.
Personally assessed: Suitability, timing and route are confirmed with Vanessa before booking and may be adjusted for weather, trail and group conditions.
