About This Tour
The Five Islands Mauritius Speedboat Trip
The Five Islands speedboat trip is the most ambitious and varied day tour on the east coast of Mauritius. Unlike the standard catamaran to Île aux Cerfs, this trip uses a private speedboat to reach five distinct islands, covering significantly more distance and accessing sites the catamaran route never reaches.
Your driver collects you at 07:00 and takes you to Trou d'Eau Douce on the east coast, where you board the speedboat. You return to the dock at approximately 15:00 and are driven back to your hotel by 15:30.
What You'll Experience
The Five Islands
Featured Stop
Île aux Cerfs
The most famous island on the east coast — a long arc of white sand with turquoise water, coral reef just offshore, kayaking, water sports and the island's famous golf course. The BBQ lunch with unlimited drinks is served here, with live music entertainment. This is where the majority of the day is spent.
02
Île aux Phares
A working lighthouse over 200 years old. Excellent snorkelling in calm, clear water with abundant marine life.
03
Île de la Passe
The 1810 Battle of Grand Port was fought here — the only French naval victory inscribed on the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Ruined 18th-century fortifications still visible on shore.
04
Île aux Aigrettes
Coral island nature reserve restored to its pre-human condition by the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation. Giant Aldabra tortoises and rare endemic birds.
05
Blue Bay Marine Park
A protected marine park with one of the finest coral reef systems in the Indian Ocean. Crystal-clear water — outstanding snorkelling and underwater visibility.
