Mahebourg
The well-planned town centre of Mahebourg shows its heritage as
a French and Dutch colony. The sleepy coastal town is a centre of
local trade and is a popular tourist destination in Mauritius,
despite its rather run-down facade. The town boasts a number of
hotels and other accommodation, along with some good restaurants, a
casino, and a Handicraft Museum that is among the best places to
find a souvenir in Mauritius. Popular activities in Mahebourg
include sailing, golf, scuba diving, and bicycling. Mahebourg is
not known for its beaches, though there are excellent beaches
nearby in Blue Bay.
