Mauritius in 3 days

Day 1: If you go to an island paradise, well, you should go to an island paradise. Mont Choisy's curvy, sweeping white sand beaches low on watersports and fishermen make it the best beach to relax. Move up one beach to Trou aux Biches for some of the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the world. End the day in Grand Baie for the Tamil Surya Oudaya Sangam Temple, some of the island's best shopping, and the best nightclub around: The Banana Beach Club

Day 2: On day two take a trip to the hills in the south of the island for some absolutely breathtaking scenery. You'll get it by walking up the natural stairs at the 100 m tall Chamarel Waterfall. From there head on to the island's most popular destination: Seven Coloured Earth. The volcanic rock here is rich in iron and aluminium and gives a uniquely emblematic blue and red hue to the sand dunes.

Day 3: Explore the City of Port Louis on day three for a fascinating look into the island's colonial past. The Saint James Cathedral, Port Louis Theater, and Government House are three highlights. Grab a snack and a souvenir at the Central Market and close the day out with a craft beer and a tasty Creole dinner at Lambic.
