Sand Art & Stunning Sunset in Mauritius 🏝🌅
With hawkers, restaurants and lots of hotels nearby, Pereybere is a great beach to chill and catch stunning sunsets. I recommend going in the late afternoon usually at around 6pm ish if you don’t want to miss golden hour! 😎The beach is usually a bit crowded at that time, but one can easily find a quiet spot to relax 🏖 Bring your beach mat, sunglasses,snacks, beverages & chill 😌
Sand sculptures are a trending form of art there. Sometimes, competitions showcasing sculptures of different styles by locals are held on the beach. Lucky you if you get some snaps 📸
How to go ➡️ There are busses 🚌 from Port Louis North bus station OR taxi 🚕 is also a convenient option.

The Lux * Grand Baie Beautiful World😍❤️
#besthotels
The Lux * Grand Baie Beautiful World is located 1 hour and 30 minutes' drive from the airport, and is within walking distance to Super U and the Greater Bay Business District. Little Sichuan, which has been eating continuously for three days, is right next to Super U! The room type is the same throughout the entire hotel area, with Junior suites facing the sea, black and white minimalist style, very new and clean! I received a dessert upon check-in, and I really love it. I stayed at the Great Bay Beautiful World Hotel in the north for three nights this time.

The Lux*Grand Baie Beautiful Hotel Recommendation😍❤️
#besthotels
Of course, the main reason for coming to this hotel is the stunning autumn infinity swimming pool. It's really beautiful! I love the red and white style swimming pool next to the restaurant downstairs, I love taking pictures! Although the coastline is not long, it is very beautiful. The unpowered offshore projects are all free to play. Keep moving forward at 5:00pm. It is essential to experience the spa at Lux World Home! It's so comfortable! The breakfast at Jiejia cannot be ignored. The ordered Chinese breakfast is so satisfying! For my Chinese stomach, I can eat Congee, Century egg, fermented bean curd, pickled mustard and deep-fried dough sticks in the morning!

Mauritius 🇲🇺 | A place to visit in life
💧Travel, food🍜...||| Itinerary 🚗
✨Day1
📍Red Roof Church: A romantic landmark in Mauritius, next to the azure coastline🌊! It's very photogenic📷, many celebrities will come to check in, and there will be weddings💒 here.
📍Grand Baie: A harbor town, there are many restaurants🍴, bars along the coast, very comfortable.
📍Trou Aux Biches: A very quiet beach in the north, you can take a submarine to see corals and shipwrecks🚢!
✨Day2
📍Deer Island Paragliding: So fun🤩🤩!! At first, you will be a little worried and scared, but after you really fly, all kinds of beautiful scenery are in sight😍 all fears will disappear, and you want to play a second time!
📍Deer Island Sofa Boat: Too exciting! Screams one after another, it's really cool☺️ I want to play again after playing!
📍Deer Island Solar Underwater Walk: It's too friendly for friends who can't swim🏊♀️. Under the guidance of a professional coach, wearing diving equipment⚓️, diving into the sea near the waters of Deer Island, there are very beautiful coral reefs here, as if entering a fairy tale🏰 world, it's particularly magical and exciting!!
✨Day3
📍Deer Cave Volcano: It's not quite the same as imagined, you can come or not~ It has been surrounded by vegetation🌳, and you can only vaguely see the volcano.
📍Grand Bassin: Also called Sacred Lake, it is a lake🌊 formed after a volcanic eruption. Hindu believers believe that the lake water is connected to the Ganges in India, so they perform worship, baptism and other activities here. The annual 'Shiva Festival' celebration is also held here.
📍Black River Gorges National Park: The environment is great👏! It's simply a paradise for hiking enthusiasts!! The park has several entrances and dedicated hiking routes🏃♀️~
📍Seven Colored Earth: There are actually three colors (black, red, and earth yellow). The other four colors depend on your luck. When the sun☀️ is just right, it can be refracted, but it is very difficult to take pictures... It's still worth everyone to check in📷
Food Section🤤
🍽Le Chamarel Restaurant
It's a mountain top⛰️ restaurant, very famous! The signature dish is palm heart salad, the taste is very special, sweet and refreshing! Paired with Italian salad oil, the combination of sour and sweet, it's just too delicious😋 You can choose a set meal which is also very good👍 Remember to book in advance!
🍽little sichuan
I've been eating for several days! Basically, you won't step on thunder💣 no matter what you order, the snails are big and fresh, highly recommended! The green mussels are big and fat and there is no sand, very fresh! It's really delicious😋
