Summer in Mauritius Island is a season (November to April) synonymous with warmth, light and outdoor living. In the north-east of the island, around Azuri Village and Roches Noires, a unique natural setting offers a wide range of summer activities for all ages. Between turquoise lagoons, green spaces, nautical experiences, sports activities and cultural discoveries, this region perfectly embodies the Mauritian art of living in summer.

Here, summer is lived close to nature, in an atmosphere that is both lively and peaceful, where each day is shaped by the sea, sport, relaxation and shared moments.

Nautical activities and lagoon pleasures

The calm, crystal-clear lagoon of the north-east of Mauritius is ideal for fully enjoying the sea during summer. Protected by the coral reef, it offers perfect conditions for accessible and safe water activities.

Snorkelling should definitely be on your bucket list, with rich and colourful seabeds easily accessible from the shore. Tropical fish, corals and shallow waters allow explorations suited to both adults and children.

Boat or catamaran trips give you a new view of the coastline. You can cruise along the shore, find hidden coves, or visit nearby islets. These trips are perfect for days of swimming and relaxation.

At Azuri, the JPH Nautical Club, located right in the heart of the village, makes these experiences easier. The club provides supervised water activities for both beginners and experienced participants. These activities are safe and friendly. Kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding and guided outings allow everyone to enjoy the lagoon with complete peace of mind.

Kayak and paddle are particularly appreciated for their gentle and immersive approach. They allow you to glide over the water at sunrise or sunset, offering moments of calm and connection with nature.

For thrill seekers, windsurfing also has its place in the north-east, thanks to favourable wind conditions during the summer season, with professional supervision provided by the JPH Nautical Club.

Sorties en mer, pêche et expériences nautiques

Le nord-est de l’île Maurice est également reconnu pour ses sorties en haute mer.

Les locations de bateaux privés, avec ou sans skipper, sont très populaires pendant l’été. Elles permettent d’organiser des croisières personnalisées, des sorties à la journée ou des moments privilégiés au coucher du soleil. Vivre ou séjourner à Azuri donne un accès privilégié à ces expériences, dans un cadre sécurisé et organisé, une fois encore grâce à la proximité du JPH Nautical Club.
