Mauritius is one of the world's classic honeymoon destinations, and many couples tell us their private boat day was the moment of the trip they remember most. No crowds, no schedule, just the two of you, a skipper who knows the lagoon, and the most beautiful water on the island.
Why a private boat for a honeymoon
Private trips start from 2 guests, so the boat is yours alone. You decide how long to stay on each beach, when to swim and when to eat. Your skipper keeps a discreet distance and knows the quiet corners away from the busy landing points.
A romantic day, step by step
- Morning: leave Mahébourg at 09:30 in the softest light, past the islands of Grand Port bay.
- Snorkeling for two over the reef, then the drama of the GRSE waterfall.
- Lunch on Île aux Cerfs: BBQ on the beach with an optional grilled langouste upgrade.
- Afternoon: a lazy swim on a sandbank if the tide allows, and drinks on the way home.
We also arrange sunset cocktails near Île aux Aigrettes. Read why a sunset cruise is the perfect romantic gesture.
Planning a proposal?
Tell Captain Pascal in confidence when you book. We can help choose the moment and the spot, and keep the secret.
