Why go
Head south-west to Bel Ombre for an area where inland landscape meets the coast. On the east coast, Trou d’Eau Douce is associated with trips towards Île aux Cerfs. Rodrigues asks for a different scale of planning: it lies well east of the main island and is a destination in its own right.
What to look for
- Bel Ombre runs from upland terrain towards the south-west coast.
- Trou d’Eau Douce is an east-coast starting point for Île aux Cerfs.
- Rodrigues is a distinct island east of Mauritius.
Useful to know
- Give Rodrigues a separate travel plan rather than treating it as a day stop on the main island.
- Check current boat arrangements before planning an Île aux Cerfs trip from Trou d’Eau Douce.
