The best packing lists for Mauritius

Mauritius sits inside a reef, and the lagoon is shallow and stony in places, which makes reef shoes more useful here than on most islands. Inland the country is mountainous, and walks in Black River Gorges National Park run over slippery clay paths.

Good to know for Mauritius

The central plateau around Curepipe is noticeably cooler and wetter than the coast, a difference many visitors underestimate. June to September is winter with a strong southeast trade wind and fresh evenings, while January to March is the humid season with cyclone risk.

Sockets are types C and G side by side at 230 volts, so an adapter for the British three-pin plug belongs in the bag. The currency is the Mauritian rupee, cards work in hotels and supermarkets, and markets and buses want cash. Tap water is treated, though many visitors still stick to bottled.

A fair number of hotels apply an evening dress code in the restaurant, and long trousers and a shirt for men is not a rare requirement.
