If you’re planning a holiday that goes beyond beach lounging and includes heart-racing fun, Beachcomber Packages are designed to deliver unforgettable adventure experiences in paradise.
Why Adventure Seekers Love Beachcomber
Mauritius is world-famous for its powdery beaches and crystal-clear waters, but for those with a sense of adventure, Beachcomber Resorts offer far more than sunbeds and cocktails. These luxury resorts are located in prime positions across the island, giving guests direct access to the land, sea, and sky, all waiting to be explored.
With tailored experiences for every type of adventurer, from beginners to seasoned thrill-seekers, Beachcomber blends comfort with excitement. Each resort offers professionally guided activities, quality equipment, and access to some of the island’s most beautiful and adrenaline-rich environments.
Water Sports and Ocean Thrills
The ocean around Mauritius is a playground for adventure. Beachcomber Resorts take full advantage of their coastal settings, providing activities that let you dive headfirst into the action, quite literally.
- Water-skiing and Wakeboarding: Feel the rush as you skim across the surface of turquoise lagoons. These sports are available daily at most Beachcomber properties and are suitable for all skill levels. Instructors provide one-on-one coaching to help you master your balance and timing.
- Kitesurfing: With consistent winds and expansive beaches, Mauritius is a top destination for kitesurfers. Resorts such as Dinarobin and Paradis Beachcomber offer lessons and equipment hire, and the nearby Le Morne lagoon is one of the most iconic kitesurfing spots in the world.
- Scuba Diving: Dive into vibrant underwater ecosystems with Beachcomber’s certified diving centres. Whether you’re exploring coral gardens, submerged caves, or dramatic drop-offs, the Indian Ocean delivers a kaleidoscope of marine life. Beginners can enrol in PADI courses, while experienced divers can join group expeditions to deeper sites.
- Snorkelling: For those who prefer to stay closer to the surface, daily snorkelling trips offer access to reefs teeming with fish, rays, and sea turtles. Some resorts have designated snorkelling zones just steps from the shore.
- Windsurfing, Stand-up Paddleboarding & Kayaking: Ideal for active mornings or sunset explorations, these options combine fitness with fun. Calm lagoons make it safe and scenic, especially for first-timers.
On Land: Mountains, Trails and Hidden Adventures
Once you’ve dried off, Mauritius still has more to offer. Its diverse terrain features lush forests, volcanic hills, and dramatic cliffs. Beachcomber works with certified partners to help you explore it all in style.
- Guided Hiking Tours: Mauritius is home to excellent hiking spots. The iconic Le Morne Brabant offers panoramic views and a historical journey, as it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Guided hikes into the Black River Gorges National Park also reveal waterfalls, exotic bird species, and thick rainforest trails.
- Mountain Biking: Several Beachcomber properties, especially Paradis and Shandrani, arrange biking adventures into scenic countryside routes. Expect to weave through sugarcane fields, cross rivers, and navigate jungle terrain.
- Horse Riding: A more leisurely yet adventurous option, horseback rides along the beach or through quiet inland paths are also available through resort partnerships. It’s a peaceful way to connect with nature while enjoying something different.
Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences
For the traveller who wants to push their boundaries, Beachcomber offers some rare and memorable experiences you’ll be talking about long after your trip ends.
- Parasailing: Feel the thrill of soaring high above the lagoon with a parachute pulling you behind a speedboat. This aerial perspective offers views few others get to enjoy, plus the adrenaline hit is unmatched.
- Deep Sea Fishing: Reel in the big ones with full-day charters targeting marlin, tuna, and barracuda. Whether you’re experienced or a beginner, it’s an actual test of patience and power, complete with the reward of open-ocean solitude.
- Catamaran Cruises with Wild Stops: These excursions combine adventure with relaxation. Swim with dolphins, snorkel in remote coves, or jump from the deck into warm tropical waters. Some even include cliff jumping or visits to private islands.
- Quad Biking and Buggy Safaris: Ride through off-road trails, mud tracks and rural landscapes. These half- or full-day excursions often include cultural stops at tea plantations or hidden waterfalls, blending adrenaline with authentic experiences.
- Ziplining and Canyoning: While not offered directly by all resorts, these can be arranged through trusted providers nearby. Soar over valleys or rappel down waterfalls in Mauritius’ lush southern region, a must for those who genuinely want to go wild.
