At Made in Mauritius we’ve fallen in love with the incredible Instagram images and quality of photographic detail that we see on the island each week.

This proved the case recently as well for writer, Suzi Loxton, when she visited the island and said ‘Mauritius is Instagram Heaven!’.

On her trip, Loxton experienced everything on the island from cruising and Sega dancing to visiting the lush botanic gardens in Pamplemousse and sampling the ‘picture-perfect turquoise seas’.

“Snorkelling by a reef just offshore was first on my agenda, and spotting a group of dolphins somersaulting and playing in the boat’s waves as we headed out was a welcome bonus and something to tick off the bucket list,” said Loxton.

On the tranquillity of Mauritius, Loxton said: “I was overwhelmed by the space, fresh air and beauty of nature surrounding me. Consequently the theme tune for Desert Island Discs did pop into my head, too.”

The daily, locally caught smoked marlin just off the coast of Grand Baie was one of Loxton’s top recommendations and also L’Aventure du Sucre. She said: “[It] not only tells the story of the sweet stuff in fascinating detail, but also along the way covers the history of Mauritius, slavery and the rum trade.”
