Eastern Mauritius Day Tour: Rhumerie St Aubin, Blue Bay Snorkel & Mahebourg Highlights

The morning begins with the ocean at your side: a low, steady swell sighs against the reef as a roomy, air-conditioned van slips away from coastal hotels and threads sugar‑cane country toward the island’s southeastern corner. By midmorning the tour arrives at Rhumerie de St Aubin, a colonial house of peeling shutters and shaded courtyards where the smell of fermented cane lingers in the air like a promise. A guide leads guests past copper stills and aging vats, explaining how sugar, spice and steam combine into the island’s signature spirit, then invites them to taste—where citrus, vanilla and oak arrive in small, measured sips.
