Île aux Bénitiers boat trip, all day
This is FreeDom’s signature trip: a whole day in the most beautiful lagoon on the west coast, between Black River and Le Morne. Dolphins at sunrise, Crystal Rock standing in the turquoise water, the lagoon turtles, and a barbecue with your feet in the water on the beach at Île aux Bénitiers.

Euro amounts are a guide only.
The day starts in Tamarin Bay, when the dolphins are resting there. A swim with them if the sea allows, three swimmers at a time.
The white rock rising out of the lagoon off Le Morne, then snorkelling along the reef.
Dominique takes you where the lagoon’s turtles and rays pass by.
A break on the island’s beach, with a barbecue and a swim, before heading back to Black River in the afternoon, about 7 hours after leaving.
Île aux Bénitiers is the most popular excursion on the west coast, and the catamarans often all arrive at the same time. With FreeDom, it’s just your group: Dominique changes the order of the day to avoid the crowds, stops wherever you like, and goes at your pace.
The price is for the whole boat, up to 6 people: in a group, the private day often costs about the same as a shared trip.
In the south-west lagoon of Mauritius, between La Gaulette and the Le Morne peninsula, about thirty minutes by boat from Black River. Crystal Rock is right next to it, on the sandbank.
“We did the dolphin and beach bbq with Dom today. It was fantastic.”
“He’s a great guide with interesting stories about Mauritius. The food was delicious.”
“During the trip he showed us the lagoon with turtles.”
Dolphins in the morning, Crystal Rock, snorkelling on the reef, the lagoon turtles and a barbecue on the beach at Île aux Bénitiers, on a boat reserved for your group.
About 7 hours, leaving Black River around 7am.
Rs 18,000 for the boat, up to 6 people, barbecue included.
Yes, it’s the families’ favourite: the Google reviews talk about children swimming with dolphins and going home as little experts on the sea.
