Mauritius · Full day from the east coast

Île aux Cerfs

The classic east-coast islet day, executed so it is not a cattle boat: exclusive beach, a proper lunch, snorkel for those who swim. We skip it if the hotel already has a better house reef.

How we run it

Île aux Cerfs is on every brochure. Our job is boat exclusivity and a set that does not share the sand with three other incentives. East-coast hotels (Touessrok, Prince Maurice, east-coast Four Seasons) are the geography. Le Morne groups do a different south-west day.

Golf on the island exists; we still run a spa/catamaran twin for non-golfers.

What is included

— Exclusive-use or staged boats, beach set, lunch
— Snorkel split and a shade plan
— A skip if the contracted hotel reef is stronger — we will say so in the proposal

What we will not do

— Not a surprise add-on from the west coast without a long transfer.
— Cattle-boat versions are not our product.

Planner questions

Who is Île aux Cerfs for?

20–100 with exclusive beach set-up and a boat spread

When should we run Île aux Cerfs?

May–November is the professional lagoon window. Summer needs a cyclone-and-wind clause. Lead time: 10–14 months for an exclusive beach set on peak European-winter dates. Duration on the ground: Full day from the east coast.

How do we add Île aux Cerfs to a Mauritius MICE programme?

Gorillas, savanna and Indian Ocean

Rwanda gorilla permits, a Kenya or Tanzania savanna chapter, then Mauritius or Seychelles. Nine nights is the honest minimum. Compressing this into six nights makes the trip feel like airports.

Mauritius lagoon, golf and Le Morne incentive

East-coast flagship (One&Only, Four Seasons Anahita or Shangri-La) for rooms and boats, then a south-west day at Le Morne so the trip is not only a shotgun start. Parallel spa and catamaran for non-golfers. Distinct from a dealer-conference plenary week.
