“A very early pick up 5.45am and then over an hour wait on the beach for the boat didn't feel like a good start but once we were underway the day was everything we wanted and more. We saw dolphins many times, a pod of between 30-50 ! Unfortunately as soon as we got in the water they ducked away and popped up 30 ft away! Definitely playing with us! The guide was respectful of the dolphins and although it was a case of spot them then try and get a little closer this was done gently. We were also lucky enough to see sea turtles, what amazing majestic creatures…”

Review of Mauritius’s Ile aux Cerfs catamaran cruise, with waterfall views, snorkeling, BBQ lunch, drinks, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.

“Amazing! Such good hosts constantly providing refreshments. Very good value for money, would recommend to anybody. A beautiful and comfortable day at sea. Snorkelling spot could have been better and would have been good to see the dolphins but that’s not in control I guess!”

Mauritius: Catamaran Day Cruise to lle aux Cerfs with Lunch

9.Catamaran Day Cruise to lle aux Cerfs with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 438 reviews · 6 hours · from $65

Cruise Mauritius lagoons to GRSE waterfalls and Ile aux Cerfs with snorkeling, BBQ lunch, drinks, music, and a friendly crew.

“The Catamaran cruise itself was great, the crew was nice, the food was good. The snorkeling spot was great but I think there are better places around Ile aux Cerfs to see more and more colourful fishes. The GSRE waterfall was disappointing and too many boats with tourists have been around. Ile aux Cerfs itself was very nice, has a lot of beautiful beaches but we only had 1,5 hours there. That was too less time to find a nice place and to relax or snorkel.”
