MAURITIUS - WHERE MOUNTAINS KISS THE OCEAN
Once upon a time, the islands of the Indian Ocean were virtually unknown as a tourist destination. Most people's thoughts of palm trees and trade winds, white sands and blue seas conjured images of the South Pacific or the Caribbean. Not anymore.
Mauritius, a place where the mountains almost tumble into the sea, is finally coming into its own, and travellers will be cheered to note that prices are actually coming down to honour it, enticing visitors of every budget to see what they've been missing. Mauritius is making a name for itself as the most accessible island in the region, boasting a tropical paradise that offers good value for money.
