Ride 35 km of southern Mauritius by quad: coastal cliffs, a swim-worthy waterfall and a crocodile park lunch stop. This five-hour loop mixes easy off-road riding with geological highlights and local flavor.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The day opens on a low, salt-stung wind as your quad hums away from Big Foot Adventure and the road leans toward the southern coast. Waves at Gris-Gris dare the cliffs, sending white spray over La Roche qui Pleure where rock and sea keep an impatient conversation. Riding along the Savanne river, you pass volcanic outcrops and sugarcane fields that frame views of the Indian Ocean.

Hydrate before and during the tour
Carry at least 1–1.5 L of water in a reusable bottle; sustained sun and dust on the quad dehydrate quickly.
Wear closed-toe shoes with grip
Rochester Falls and rocky viewpoints can be slippery—sturdy shoes prevent slips during short scrambles.
Protect electronics from dust and spray
Use a waterproof pouch or dry bag for phones and cameras; dust masks are provided but electronics are vulnerable.
Clarify single vs double quad when booking
Specify single or double quads for group bookings to ensure correct vehicle allocation and seating.
Closed-toe trail shoes
Grip and foot protection for waterfall approaches and variable tracks.
Sunglasses and helmet liner
