What to pack for Mauritius

Generally, smart casual clothing is suitable throughout the year. Take plenty of beach and casual wear. In the winter months (June - September), carry some light woollen clothing for the cool evenings. If you're having trouble deciding the best time to visit Mauritius have a look at our When to Go page.

Women are expected to cover up between the beach and the hotel, and you should show due respect when visiting religious places. Wear appropriate clothing and remove leather shoes and belts when entering the premises.

The most practical items to pack are:

• Khaki, brown, white and beige colours
• Light cotton tops and cotton trousers/shorts in summer
• Safari trousers for evenings and cooler days
• Swimwear, snorkel, mask, fins, sun lotion
• A hat, sunglasses and sunscreen
• Plastic sandals, to protect feet against injury from sharp coral or stone fish
• Comfortable walking shoes
• Camera film and batteries
