A must see is the park rare collection of butterflies and other brightly-colored insects (with about 23 000 species), which is one of the biggest and most fascinating in the world.

The next stop is the Rochester waterfalls, which are located near the southern coast of Mauritius. This area is full of natural beauties and interesting formations. The organ-pipe shaped basalt columns near the waterfall and the signs of lava balls revealed from the way are really spectacular.

The tour will continue to the cliffs of Gris-Gris of Souillac which are found on the Southern tip of Mauritius. Gris Gris got its name for its gloomy and moody atmosphere which you will find all year round.
This is the only place in Mauritius where there is an opening in the barrier reefs circling Mauritius. And accordingly the only place you can see the big waves reaching the shores and crashing on the cliffs.

The next stop is Riambel, a small village in the south of the island. Anyone going there will feel the high energy with intense vibratory levels which flow there. As part of the tour you will also visit the beautiful beach of Riambel.

From Riambel the tour will continue along the coastline visiting the breathtaking beaches of Pointe aux Roches, Baie du Cap, Maconde, and the Le Morne Brabant.

Le Morne Brabant is a peninsula at the extreme south-western tip of Mauritius. It is highlighted by a single standing basaltic rock with a summit of 556 meters above sea level. Le Morne Brabant is one of the most imposing sights on Mauritius. It is surrounded by a lagoon and is one of the most famous tourist attractions. In Le Morne Brabant one can find one of the rarest plants in the world, the Mandrinette. Another rare plant which grows only on the sides of the rock is the Trochetia boutoniana.

You will end the tour visiting the beautiful beaches of Flic en Flac for a wonderful relaxation and/or swimming. Flic en Flac with its beautiful beaches which are considered some of the best in the world is the second most popular tourist destination of Mauritius after Grand Bay.
