WHEN is the BEST TIME to come to MAURITIUS?

[@peacemaker9572]

Summer is the best time ,you get to enjoy the nice tropical fruits ,mangoes ,lichees ,,and it’s so nice to be by the beach.

[@jfrancobelge]

My wife and I have been to Mauritius for ten days in February several years ago. We just fell in love with the island and its people. Weather-wise it was indeed hot and humid, but it was such a welcome escape from our Belgian winter that we enjoyed it. We had rain every single day, but it was all short-lived showers that did not ruin the sunshine that still prevailed most of the day. Have we been lucky weather-wise? I don't know, but what I know is that I hate rain at home and in Mauritius it did not bother me. The circumstances of life and of the world (COVID) have so far prevented us from going again to Mauritius, but we definitely want to go back.

Been there in February 2019 and think that was awesome!!! Yeah, some days it was a bit too hot for unaccustomed visitors but the weather patterns made for absolutely mind-blowing sunsets and sunrises! We were staying mostly on the southern coast and had a chance to enjoy both every day. Photo-wise that was a totally gorgeous trip! And occasional rains didn't really bother much. Even getting wet in those temperatures was nothing to be afraid of. But now that I got myself injected with the kiteboarding I wanna come back somewhere in May or later to explore this other side of the island. :)

Having visited the island four times since 2001, I have been in July, August, October and April….on the whole for me it’s the start of their summer is best….not too humid, nice and toasty…..last trip was a few weeks ago, it was very humid, and many flowers were past their best, sea was warm mind, so it’s horses for courses, I would say, it comes down to location, very windy Belle Mare Plage, but much calmer at La Pirogue….if you want cold, miserable wet…then try Curepipe in mid winter…..it is like home from home…..but pleasant in summer…lovely videos, thank you.

[@adidonnylad1133]

Best time is during a cyclone! It's proper amazing. The main thing is that it's hot so the water and the rain doesn't matter at all, and being English it's a delightful because here in the UK the weather is far worse than a little cat 5 cyclone. Although, being without a radiator to dry your clothes on isn't funny especially if you get to day 3 without sun or running water! Honestly, cyclone weathers the best time to be there!

[@melchizedekful]

it is definately January/February reasons: #1 you might enjoy a beautiful tropical cyclone. Perhaps it is a once in a life time experience. 🙂 #2 the island is empty of tourists therefore everything is cheaper and more comfortable, there is no annoying mass anywhere, the traffic jams are not that serious. #3 it is winter in Europe so nothing is better than jump up two seasons in only 18 hours.

Weather in this area should be okay, but I was informed that weather in different areas is too cold and windy, and it is no-go. Flic n flac was good - too hot when it was sunny, but little bit cold when it was cloudy (80% of time!) So there was need to wear light sweatshirt especially in the afternoon / evening. After 4 pm it was too cold even for staying in the swimming pool, some days sea was cold, other days it was okay. Conclusion = next time I would choose october for beach holidays, but it was okay for exploring. Important information - weather keep changing every few minutes and it is absolutely unpredictable. Sometimes it was cloudy and we wanted to go for trip and before we changed clothes and prepared, it was suddenly hot and clear sky. Sometimes it was sunny, and before we took swimsuit to go to the sea, it started raining. Not really my favourite weather conditions :)

I wouldn't agree about the best time to visit Mauritius, Winter, if I'm wanting to taste the different tropical fruits of Mauritius as they all ripen in summer. The best pineapple in the world grows there, the Queen Victoria pineapple and it's probably my favourite tropical fruit. If I wanted to experience a bit milder temperatures then I agree that winter is better and definitely cooler. The last time I came to Mauritius was in 2013 when I came in July for the first time in winter with my youngest daughter, previously the family would come anytime from November to February. The humidity in summer never bothered me terribly, although Port Louis could be a bit hotter and more uncomfortable. Regardless of the time of year, the sun is strong and it's not hard to get sunburnt and I have more or less olive skin, but was still concerned about the sun's strength as far as getting sunburnt. Actually thinking back to when I was in Mauritius last, the weather was much more pleasant in the winter. And regarding tropical fruit, I wondered why the pineapple tasted so good when the Australian grown pineapple was mediocre and then years later I read that most judges of quality fruit regard the Queen Victoria pineapple as the best pineapple in the world. Lychees are also like very much and don’t think I’d ever tried one before I first went to Mauritius with my wife in 1985. And papaya which I thought I didn’t like when I tried it in Mauritius it tasted good. I can’t recall if the papaya I tried was local or imported from South Africa as it was winter in Mauritius when I tried the papaya although I understand papaya can ripen in autumn also.

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Thanks John for your comment. As the climate is mild all year round, I think the only fruit missing in winter would be litchis as one can get pineapples on the island all year round.

How is the Mauritius weather in March, is it raining a lot?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

It can rain a lot then!

[@BryanDiscoversWorld]

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Yep. Can’t wait till I can turn off the Aircon.

[@LucyLeheilleix]

It’s always worth going 😀

Hello Lucy, we're watching your videos from Italy because we're looking to come visit mauritius from the end of july to august, do you know if in the north-west side of the island the winds are not strong like in the east and south side?? because we don't do water sport we would like to go snorkeling and scuba-diving. Hope you will read this and give us an advice, thanks!!

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Hello. The wind should be less strong on that side.

[@mrznale]

@@LucyLeheilleix ok happy to hear that !! Thank you

[@davidherholdt9579]

What about the end of March..? My wife's birthday is the 27th and I want to surprise her with a trip to either Four Seasons or one of the big four up north..?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

March is great 👍🏻

[@chrishill2489]

Great vlog Lucy and great info and advice as always. I’ve been bing watching your blogs as we are due to visit for two weeks at the end of the month at the sugar beach resort, soooooooo excited. Thanks again ❤️📸🇬🇧🤓👍

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Sugar beach is an amazing hotel. I really should review it 👍🏻 Have a great time Chris.

[@nicolasmit-rk8cr]

We are planning to go for our first over sea vacation at the end of March 2024. Is this a good time?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Anytime is a good time 😀

[@legalactivity6977]

I am was born there and immigrated to UK in 1965, the best time is mid July to August. I am going this year mid July to August.

[@abdulwahabalotaibi7285]

Awesome Video with very Helpful information Thank you always Lucy

[@Alex-eh4ot]

We want to visit Mauritius for the first time. We are scared but only could come end of June beginning July to Mauritius. We want to go to the north west to Connier beachcomber. What should we expect 20-25 degree? Is it cloudy the whole time? We don’t care if it’s cold on the evening but a bit of summer holiday feeling would be good^^ we also want to explore the island. We are so unsure and can’t decide… can you help please?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Well it is Mauritius’ winter time so it will not be baking hot, but also not icy cold either. Unfortunately I’m not a weather god so I can’t tell you how cloudy, rainy, windy or sunny it will be. 😃 However, Mauritius is lovely and I’m sure you will have a great time. It’s usually warm during the day and a jumper is needed at night. Aim for a hotel with a heated pool. Have fun 🤩

[@twillrox]

Hi Lucy, lovely informative video! 🤩 I'm thinking of traveling to Mauritius in June. I'm being told to desist as there's chances of torrential rain & cold. What are your thoughts?

[@jackjude6832]

Hi, Was thinking of travelling to the east coast (belle mare) in mid/late June. How is this wind during this period?? Where is the best place to avoid wind if the east is windy Thanks!

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Hi Jack. That is the windy season. I’d go north or west, but Mauritius has many sheltered bays. The most beautiful part of the island is the SW (in my opinion). Have a great time 👍🏻

[@mauricemaurice23]

Hello, do I need a permit to fly my drone in Mauritius? Is there a regulation where to fly ones. Thanks

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Drone flying is very relaxed here. Just respect the general piloting rules and you’re going to be fine.

[@anika7876]

Hei,:) is it still warm enough to swim in may? or does it rain a lot?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

The water temperature is around 24 degrees. Definitely still warm enough to swim 😊Normally there is less rain, but the weather is becoming less and less predictable.

[@munirakhan8282]

Helloo me and my family are planning to go during Easter 5th April 2025 for 2 weeks. Just wanted to check as I will have a 4 year old with me and 7 year old who love snorkeling what more in calm waters, is April better or begining ofJuly to visit (mainly for beach holidays not watersports)?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

April will be warmer 😀

[@danielhemsley557]

Very good info thanx 🙌

[@LucyLeheilleix]

A pleasure 👍🏻

[@ub657]

I love Mauritius! 😍 Thanks👍 I subscribe 😊

[@IamZukes]

Woukd August be a good time to come for a honeymoon? Hoping for sunny warm weather and low humidity

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Hi there. The weather is so off at the moment….we’re experiencing such a cold winter that I’m finding it increasingly hard to answer that question 😬 If you want hotter weather, maybe October/November or March/April? December to February will be hot and humid, but it’s also the cyclone season. I hope that helps!?

[@appleipad6648]

Mam, I’m planning in January

[@francinnytafarella8144]

What about October? I’ve heard that it is the driest month. Is it true?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

October can be nice, but don’t hold me to it as the weather is changing the world over.

[@kshitijjain2604]

Is End Of March too Rainy or Cyclonic? Planning my Honeymoon in Mauritius so don't want to spoil it because of weather 😅

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Very hard to say. Weather is…..unpredictable 😉

[@ellenking3378]

Hi I am coming at the begging of March 2023 what will the weather be like?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Hi Ellen. To be honest, I have no idea what the weather will be like. Possibly hot and sunny. Maybe a bit of rain? 🤔

[@bchmrk]

I am now confused. Online it states on many sites that the best time to visit Mauritius is toward the end of the year, from October through to December, when temperatures are hottest. But now you say that December has terrible rain. We are to visit from Canada in December. Are we doing it wrong? BTW Any tips on an affordable all-inclusive? Or other suggestion?

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Hi Mark. My two favourite months are May and October....Cooling down in May and heating up in October. Humidity is way lower too.... December there are always the chances of cyclones and rain. Airbnb may be the way to go if you want affordable. Some of the hotels here are eye watering prices.

[@laura-anne]

Has anyone been in July? I’m getting married in Grand Baie next year and I really don’t want it to rain!

[@champs672]

See you in May !

[@timdb505]

1st April 2022 was not the best time to arrive!! Not stopped raining!! 😂

[@LucyLeheilleix]

Bad luck Tim. It will clear soon enough. Enjoy your stay!

[@timdb505]

Thanks Lucy. Looking forward to trying out some of your tips during our stay! Been a great source of info.
