À vivre

Tucked away in the highlands of southwest Mauritius, Chamarel is a place where nature displays its full power. From the moment I arrive, I am struck by the grand panoramas: green hills, the sea glittering on the horizon, and a unique light that enhances every detail. The famous Seven Coloured Earths amaze me: these undulating dunes in shades of ochre, red, purple and blue seem almost unreal. Just nearby, the Chamarel waterfall, nearly 100 metres high, plunges into a lush setting. I hear the roar of the water, both soothing and powerful. I continue the visit at a nearby rum distillery, where I discover the process behind Mauritian rum-making before a flavourful tasting.
