Introducing the Mauritius
A beautiful island nation off the east coast of the African continent, Mauritius is distinguished by breathtaking landscapes, palm-fringed beaches, and coral reefs that make it a one-of-a-kind destination for nature tourism and summer holidays. In addition to its mountains and Indian Ocean beaches, the island houses museums and national parks, and is home to a diverse culinary tradition. Mauritius’ size and beauty make it a premier destination for honeymoons, while the island’s proximity to its larger island neighbor, Madagascar, adds to its tourist appeal. Some of Mauritius’ highlights are Cap Malheureux, one of the country’s best-known beaches, and the Black River Gorges National Park, known for its hiking trails. In addition, the Natural History Museum in Port Louis, the capital, is worth visiting.
Turkish Airlines operates flights to Port Louis, Mauritius. Mauritius flights from Istanbul Airport include both direct and connecting flights; direct flights between Istanbul and Port Louis take approximately nine hours and 50 minutes.
