Customs and traditions
Mauritians are renowned for their hospitality and warmth. Visitors will be welcomed with courtesy and will be able to appreciate the multicultural nature of the population. In Hindu temples, mosques and pagodas, it is advisable to remove your shoes before entering and to wear covering clothing (shoulders and legs covered).

Electricity and internet access
Voltage in Mauritius is 230V with G-type plugs (as in the UK). However, not all establishments are equipped with these sockets, and some may have European-type sockets (type C). It is therefore advisable to bring an adapter compatible with several types of plug. Internet connections are relatively good in urban and tourist areas, but may be more limited in remote areas. Most hotels offer Wi-Fi access, although this may be subject to a charge in some establishments.

Mauritius is a relatively safe destination with a low crime rate. However, you are advised to be vigilant, especially in busy tourist areas, and to look after your personal belongings. Avoid displaying valuables and walking in secluded areas at night.

Climate
The best time to visit Mauritius is between May and December, when temperatures are pleasant and humidity lower. The hot and humid season is from January to April, when cyclones occasionally hit the island.
Languages
The languages spoken in Mauritius are mainly Mauritian Creole, French and English. English is the official language of government, while French is widely used in the media and in everyday interactions.
Quality of accommodation
The quality of accommodation is generally good, ranging from three to five-stars (local standards). Most hotels offer top-quality services, but some less touristy areas may offer more basic comfort.
Food quality
Mauritian cuisine is tasty and multicultural, combining Indian, Creole, Chinese and European influences. Most establishments offer a variety of cuisine, and it is advisable to try the local specialities. Tap water is treated, but bottled water is recommended as a precaution.
