You said yes. The flights are booked, the hotel is chosen, and you're about to experience your honeymoon on one of the most beautiful islands in the Indian Ocean. One question remains: which excursion should you choose to make this trip a memory you'll carry for the rest of your lives?

In Mauritius, the options are endless — but they are not all equal. There's a world of difference between a packed group tour with fifty strangers and a truly private, intimate experience. At Lakaz Discovery, we've designed excursions for couples who want something authentic, personal and genuinely exceptional.
Here is our selection of the best honeymoon excursions in Mauritius, from the most romantic to the most adventurous.
1. The Private Sunset Cruise — The Ultimate Choice
If there is only one excursion to choose, this is it.
Picture this: just the two of you, aboard a luxury catamaran, as the sun paints the western horizon in shades of gold and rose. No group, no noise — only the sound of the waves, a candlelit dinner served on deck, and the vast Indian Ocean stretching around you.
Our Private Sunset Cruise lasts 4 hours and departs in the late afternoon, reaching the most photogenic waters of the island at the perfect golden moment. Dolphins sometimes cross your path. The champagne is chilled. The world stops.
Why it's perfect for a honeymoon:
Entirely private — just the two of you
Breathtaking setting on the west coast, renowned for its sunsets
Romantic dinner or sunset aperitif served on board
Possible encounter with wild dolphins
From 9,000 MUR per person — Book the Private Sunset Cruise
2. Sunset Kayak in Tamarin Bay — Romance Meets Nature
For couples who love gentle adventure and an authentic connection with nature, the Sunset Kayak in Tamarin is a truly extraordinary experience.
You paddle side by side along the calm waters of the Tamarin River as the evening light turns every ripple into a painting. Your guide knows the hidden spots where the river opens onto breathtaking panoramas. It's intimate, peaceful, and unlike anything else offered on the island.
Why it's perfect for a honeymoon:
A shared experience in small groups — never crowded
Soothing atmosphere and warm golden evening light
Immersion in the preserved nature of Tamarin
Eco-responsible experience — ideal for environmentally conscious couples
From 2,900 MUR per person — Book the Sunset Kayak

Want to experience something very few couples ever get to do? Our Prestige Escape to the 3 Northern Islands takes you through turquoise preserved waters, deserted beaches and coral reefs of rare richness — all in a group capped at 10 people maximum to ensure an exclusive atmosphere.
Over 7 hours, you explore three islands with distinct personalities, snorkel in lagoons of unreal colour, and enjoy lunch in a paradise setting. It's the perfect full day for couples who want a shared adventure they'll talk about for years.
Why it's perfect for a honeymoon:
Very small group (max 10 people) for an exclusive feel
Among the most stunning scenery in all of Mauritius
Snorkeling in pristine, crystal-clear waters
A full day of discovery and togetherness

This unique excursion introduces you to Lilian E, a man whose extraordinary life story will remind you of what truly matters. Between the magnificent island setting and this rare human encounter, you leave with far more than photographs — you leave transformed.
This is the ideal excursion for couples who share strong values, who love meaningful stories, and who want their honeymoon to carry real depth.
Why it's perfect for a honeymoon:
A rare and emotionally powerful experience
The stunning natural beauty of Île aux Bénitiers

How to Choose the Right Honeymoon Excursion
Match it to your budget and your style as a couple
All the excursions above are romantic — but they suit different personalities. If you're an adventurous, nature-loving couple, the sunset kayak or the northern islands will feel just right. If you're after luxury with no compromise, the private yacht or sunset cruise is your answer.
Book early
Mauritius is one of the world's most popular honeymoon destinations, especially from November to April. Private excursions and yachts fill up fast. We strongly recommend booking at least 2 to 3 weeks in advance, ideally before you leave home.
Tell us it's your honeymoon
When you mention it at the time of booking, we can add thoughtful little touches — a bottle of local arranged rum, flowers on board, a personalised message. These are the details that turn a beautiful excursion into a memory of a lifetime.
Choose the late afternoon
Mauritian sunsets are among the most beautiful in the world. Whenever you have the choice of timing, always favour late afternoon departures — the light, the colours, and the atmosphere are infinitely more romantic than at midday.
FAQ — Honeymoon in Mauritius: Your Most Common Questions
What is the best time of year for a honeymoon in Mauritius?The best period is between May and November, during the dry season. The seas are calm, skies are clear, and temperatures are pleasant (25-27°C). Avoid January and February, which is the cyclone season.
