Mauritius is an island formed by volcanic eruptions. The Ludong crater in the central plateau is located on a dormant volcano. The crater is cone-shaped. It is a representative scenic spot in Mauritius, and it is also the origin of Mauritius. The volcano on the sea is this one. The environment on the mountain is due to the dormant state of the volcano. Today, the crater is full of houses and overgrown with plants. Plants like a green carpet make the quiet volcano come alive. Going to the scenic crater along the way is about 600 meters above sea level. If you want to see the face of the crater, you can charter a car. Along the way, the car will follow the undulating road, enter a quiet and rich residential area, and then drive up a steep slope. , stop in the parking lot, and then need to hike a steep road to the top of the crater. Mountaineering Landscape There will be pavilions, benches and well-tended lawns along the roadside during the climb, all of which are used by tourists to rest and have a picnic here. If you are climbing in the afternoon, you can also enjoy a wonderful romantic sunset time. After climbing the steep mountain road to the top, you can enjoy the scenery around the volcano. The surrounding rolling mountains and green grasslands are full of beauty. There are railings at the top of the mountain top view, you can hold the railings with your hands, and you can clearly see that the crater is well preserved. The crater has been clogged with years of rain and silt. During the rainy season, a small pool forms at the bottom of the crater, and when the weather is sunny, the crater dries up. It can be seen that there are dense thorny shrubs and forests growing on the four walls of the crater, and the rich vegetation makes the extinct volcano appear green with life. If it is not for the introduction of the guide, you may not really see that this is the volcano that once erupted violently. There used to be deer here, so it was called "Deer Cave", but now there are so many tourists that the deer are scared away. Standing on a high point viewing the crater, you can take pictures and look at the surrounding beauty. After that, you can walk down from the heights, and there is a path around the crater to the right. Walking on the path overlooks the central plains of Mauritius. Walking on the path, there are hawkers buying local souvenirs on the side of the road. You can enjoy the local souvenirs in the hands of the hawkers while watching the scenery. Turning to the other side of the crater along the path, it is still that silent and speechless. The place where lava spewed and roared in ancient times is now covered in lush vegetation. The crater also has an inward natural vertical water curtain, and the silver-white waterfall hangs in the green crater, which is very poetic. There are also some beautiful houses and gardens around the crater to visit. After the visit, you can also go to the town to experience the way of life of the local residents and appreciate their folk culture.Curepipe · 30.9km from Trou d' Eau Douce

Baie du Cap

Baie du Cap is a small headland on the southwest coast of Mauritius that juts into the South Indian Ocean. It is named for its remote location facing the open ocean, as if one has reached the end of the land. The coastal road here makes a sharp U-turn around the giant rock at the tip of the headland. Taking a photo from above the rock, capturing the road and the blue sea in the same frame, is a highly recognizable scene on the southwest coastline. Climb the stone steps to the small observation deck on top of the rock to enjoy the sea breeze, with the deep blue Indian Ocean on one side and the winding coastline on the other. In the evening, this is a great spot to watch the sunset over the sea as the sun slowly sinks into the Indian Ocean on one side of the headland. The beach is also scattered with round reefs of various sizes. At low tide, as seawater flows through the crevices between the rocks, it creates a series of wonderful sounds.Bel Ombre · 51.6km from Trou d' Eau Douce

We had such a lovely day at Île aux Cerfs! 🌴☀️ It was exactly what we needed — a day to slow down, relax and enjoy the beauty of Mauritius.The boat trip, crystal-clear water and beautiful beaches made the whole experience really special. We spent the day swimming, relaxing and just enjoying the peaceful atmosphere without rushing anywhere.It was one of those days where you can completely switch off and enjoy the moment. Definitely a memorable part of our time in Mauritius, and I would happily do it again! ❤️

The Natural Bridge is a natural attraction in Mauritius. There is no bus to reach it. The scenery of this attraction is spectacular, and you can see beautiful waves. You can walk on the Natural Bridge, but you have to walk slowly because the road surface is uneven.

The Cape of the End of the Earth in Mauritius has many large reefs protruding from the sea on the coastline, forming irregular angles. Some are like natural lighthouses standing on the sea, and some are like two pliers extending deep into the sea. The scenery is very beautiful and worth a visit.
