Where
to go
Located in
the Indian Ocean just above the Tropic of Capricorn, Mauritius benefits
from a sub-tropical climate with an average water temperature of 72°
F, making it an all year round destination. However for such a small
island there can be a marked difference in temperature and rainfall from
one side of the island to the other.
The central
plateau is much cooler than the surrounding coastal areas and can experience
as much as double the rainfall. The prevailing trade winds keep the East
side of the island cooler and also tend to bring the rain. The locals
took all of this into account when a large proportion of them settled
on the West coast.

Best
time to go
The
summer months, November to April provide coastal teperatures of up to
34 degrees Celsius. The cooler months May to October are still wonderfully
warm with the average temperature of 24 degrees Celsius.
The temperature of the interior regions particularly the more central
part of Mauritius at around 600 metres is usually around 5 degrees lower.
The most pleasant periods to go to Mauritius for a holiday, in our
opinion, are either April to June or September to November.
