Ile aux Aigrettes was declared a nature reserve in 1965 and has been central to Mauritius’s successful reintroduction of several endemic species.
The reserve is a managed restoration of original lowland forest; visitors are asked to follow ranger guidance to avoid introducing non-native seeds or insects and to support conservation-driven tourism.
Bonjour Mauritius operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
