Brief History
Mauritius was known to the early Arab traders, being marked on their maps. But the first visitors from Europe were the Portuguese (Petro Mascarenhas) who landed 1510. They used the island as a victualling stop on their way to Goa and Malacca but did not settle. The first attempt at colonization was made by the Dutch, who arrived in 1598 (Wybrandt van Warwijk) and named the island Mauritius after Prince Maurice de Nassau. They introduced sugar, Malagasy slaves and a herd of Javanese deer.

But they were also said to be responsible for the disappearance of the magnificent ebony forests and the extinction of the famous dodo. They eventually abandoned their settlements in 1710.

The French occupied the island between 1715 and 1810 and renamed it “Isle de France”. Many place names are reminders of this period. Mahe de Labourdonnais, who took over as governor in 1735, rebuilt Port Louis and opened the first sugar mill.

In 1810, with the British take-over, the name reverted to Mauritius. The abolition of slavery led to the importation of Chinese and Indian indentured labourers, who were followed by traders of their own nationalities.

Mauritius gained independence from Britain on 12 March 1968 and since then has been an independent sovereign nation within the British Commonwealth.

Under the Constitution, which is based on the Westminster model, political power is vested in the Prime Minister and the Cabinet. Elections are held every 5 years. On 12 March 1992 Mauritius became a Republic.

Geographical Location

Mauritius is a tiny island of about 1,865 km² surrounded with 330 km of beaches of silvery sand. It is situated to the North of the Tropic of Capricorn on the latitude 20º South and the longitude 57º35' East.

The country includes Rodrigues, an island 560 km to its north-east, and other scattered islands such as Agalega and Cargados Carajos (St. Brandon).

Mauritius is approximately 855 km off the east coast of Madagascar, Africa being the nearest continent, with Mombasa some 1800 km away.

Mauritius is a volcanic island, about 10 million years old. The central plateau reaches 800m in altitude with the highest peak, Le Piton de la Riviere Noire, hitting 828m. The coastline is almost entirely surrounded by one of the largest unbroken coral reefs in the world.

People & Culture
With its population of just over 1,169,000 plus around 37,000 living in Rodrigues, Mauritius is remarkable in it's ethnic diversity. Mauritian society is woven from many multi-cultured threads: Indian, African, Chinese, and European. This has produced a heady brew of races, languages, religions and eating habits. English is the official language, but almost everyone speaks and reads French. Many oriental languages are also Spoken, mainly Bhojpuri (a sort of Creole-Hindi), but Creole remains the lingua franca.

Creole rougailles, Indian curries, Muslim bryanis, Chinese sweet-and-sour pork, French delicacies, English bacon and eggs ….. you name it, you'll get it here. Basic ingredients of the Creole Cuisine are tomatoes, onions, ginger, garlic and chillies. Palm hearts, and Cameron's (giant prawns), venison and wild boar are favourite items of French cuisine. Fresh fish and seafood are basic ingredients of Chinese cooking. Local vegetables and fruits abound all year round in a colourful selection of mouth-watering delights.

Mauritians having their origin from three continents celebrate a variety of religions festivals. Besides the Christian celebrations, such as Christmas and Easter, Hindu, Muslim and Chinese holidays are observed.

Temples, Mosques, Churches and Pagodas can be visited. Visitors are requested to dress properly (no shorts, etc) and to remove shoes when entering mosques and temples.

The music for the Sega, the local specialty, is derived from the African music of the old slave days, with added Creole patios lyrics. Listening to its beat and atmosphere will invite even the most inhibited visitor to try joining in on the dance floor, swaying his hips. There are professional troupes that give performances, which highlight the hotel shows. It is not to be missed.

Ile aux Cerfs Golf Course is one of these wonderful and unique courses of the world and has recently been ranked No. 10 in the top 100 Golf Courses in the World by Golf World magazine. It is situated on the Ile aux Cerfs islet, just 1 km off the shore of Trou d’Eau Douce, on the East coast of Mauritius. Transfers by speedboat are available every 20 minuites (10 minutes transfer time.)

This 18 hole Par 72 of 6,476-metre course was designed by Bernhard Langer and has its own David Leadbetter Golf Academy. The island is just perfect for golf. It has a coastline of little bays, inlets and promontories – natural undulating topography, volcanic rock outcrops, lakes and gullies, and a profusion of tropical trees and plants. All 18 holes have views of the ocean.

The course is open from 6:30am to sunset daily and greens fees are at 156.60 Euros / person, 18 holes: (including boat shuttle.)

The 18 hole Le Touesserok One and Only Golf Course, is situated on its very own tropical island, off the Eastern coast of Mauritius.

All 18 holes have views of the ocean, some with glimpses across clearings through trees, others by coming close to the shore. There are nine lakes with a number of holes requiring tee shots across sea inlets to the fairways. The water and the expansive bunkers of indigenous white sand set off the natural backdrop of trees and vegetation.

Playing at over 6476 metres (7123 yards), this is the longest course in Mauritius, with the holes snaking up and down the length of the island. Bernhard Langer has designed the course to challenge advanced players while remaining exciting and playable for recreational golfers. This has been achieved with four sets of tee decks for each hole so that the angles of attack vary – with a generous provision of fairway where appropriate. The greens are mainly small and undulating, requiring precise approach shots.

Your cost for day includes a shared buggy with GPS * Green fees for 18 holes, followed by lunch at a Private Hunting Lodge in a fabulous setting. Transfer costs will depend of course on where you are staying.
