Trou d’Eau Douce: 5 Island Adventure with BBQ & Snorkeling

2.5 Island Adventure with BBQ & Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 1,052 reviews · 6 hours · from $100

Spend six hours on a small speedboat along Mauritius’ southeast coast, visiting Ile aux Cerfs, GRSE Waterfalls, Ile aux Fouquets, Ile de la Passe, and Ile aux Aigrettes. Expect snorkeling, swimming, island history, a beach BBQ, drinks, and possible sightings of dolphins, turtles, and monkeys with guides such as Rajiv, Oliver, or Jeremy.

“Highly recommend the speedboat tour of the 5 islands. Our Captain Derrick ripped across the waves (probably the best bit) - we got to see dolphins, turtles and monkeys over the course of the journey (recommend bringing a banana to feed monkeys). Great snorkelling opportunities, delicious BBQ lunch and free flowing rum throughout. There's an opportunity to go para-sailing out of sea for two people which I definitely recommend and is cheaper than organizing on the island.”
