Mauritius is, in our view, a remarkably secure destination. While there may be minor incidents of crime, there is no need for alarm. If you follow the usual safety measures you would at home, you should have a worry-free experience. Always keep an eye on your personal belongings and avoid leaving valuables unattended. Be sure to secure all doors and windows before heading out, particularly in self-catering accommodations.

Here are some tips for ensuring your safety while exploring Mauritius.

Exploring Cities & Towns with Caution
Stay vigilant when exploring new towns and cities. Seek guidance from your hotel before embarking on your journey. It’s best to opt for taxis when venturing out at night; wandering around after dark isn’t the safest choice.
