When to Go
Apart from the busy Christmas to New Year period, Mauritius doesn't
really have a high or low season. The depths of Mauritian 'winter'
occur from July to September, when daytime temperatures drop from
sticky to balmy. With less rain and humidity, this is one of the
choicest times to visit. Weatherwise, the least agreeable period
is from January to April, when the long days can prove too hot
and humid for some and the threat of cyclones is in the air. Visitors
should be prepared to spend several days cooped up indoors during
extra-heavy rains. December through March is the best time for
diving, when the waters are at their clearest; June through August
is best for surfing; and October through April is excellent for
big game fishing, when the large predators feed close to shore.
