    A pleasant island although it’s not really clear what’s so special about the beaches: they are lovely but quite ordinary by Mauritian standards. Everything there is ridiculously overpriced including the transfer boats, which are a sheer rip-off. Haggle with all your might, don’t pay more than 1000 rupees return, even that is a highway robbery for a 10-minute ride. The boat pilots and their touts are relentlessly unpleasant and unfriendly characters, rather exceptionally for Mauritius. There seems to be an inexpensive public water taxi but any information about it is carefully protected from tourists.

    Beautiful....sea water is soo clean tht one can see the seabed clearly... The water sports activities here are very costly, same goes for the bottle of water, food items and the local products... Everything is high in price...

    What a disappointment, expected a great island with nice beaches and great snorkeling. None of this is reality. Absolute not a wauw- factor! The wind is blowing hard and it is very commercial. Dead rats at the beach. Do not forget to bring a warm jacket and even a rain jacket. We waited one and a half hour in the rain for the boot return. And we will not come back to this island. I swam and snorkeled for a time but say only a couple of fish, not interesting and did not meet the snorkeling beauty at the islands as Curaçao (Korsou) and Bonaire! Save your money and spend it at e.g. Trou aux Biches to snorkel with the dolphins. So you definitely sure you have seen something great!

    Very good half day or one day tour. Reaching the island is not super easy if you arrive with rental car because parking is not straight forward. My suggestion is to go down the road until the boat harbor, you are forced to turn left and then go straight until the road turn right and starts to go up, here if you turn left you will find a free parking that is typically covered by leaves but is a parking. Be careful when you book the boat because they are trading to sell speed boat to tourists, more expensive for not a different service. The island is very good but you would need to find the right spot because of the shallow water not allowing good snorkeling.

    Lovely beach, variety of water sports activities available on the island, make sure not to be scammed by the price and negotiate well with them to make a good deal, some of them raised the price for tourists too much. Local shops for souvenirs and clothes. Amazing area for golf lovers. I've done the undersea walking, parasailing, dounts, and snorkeling over there.

    One of the best places I visited in Mauritius. It's hard to find the right words to describe that beauty... I'm overwhelmed by the beauty of nature! If you ever get a chance, you have to go there. The water is unbelievably clear, warm and turquoise. I love it!

    (Translated by Google) The setting is heavenly but filled with tourists in some places. Fortunately there are wild or private beaches worth seeing. If like us, you have the chance to book a room on the island, you can enjoy a much more pleasant private beach. A beautiful moment of relaxation that I advise you. (Original) Le cadre est paradisiaque mais rempli de touristes à certains endroits. Il y a heureusement des plages sauvages ou privées qui valent le détour. Si comme nous, vous avez la chance de réserver une chambre sur l'île, vous pourrez profiter d'une plage privée bien plus agréable. Un beau moment de détente que je vous conseille.

    Beautiful island. We stayed here overnight in one of their inflatable glamping “houses”. Huge territory, wide beach, the “house” is comfortable and has a large “yard” around. It’s quite hot inside during the daytime even with a/c on, but absolutely marvelous at night as you see the sky and stars laying in the bed

    Beautiful island, would definitely consider taking a boat to this island. The water is amazing and there are some nice quiet places to eat and enjoy the beach by yourself. Some parts of the island can be very crowded, so you might have to put in some effort to find a good spot for yourself.

    (Translated by Google) So beaches are much nicer in the world. Everything totally touristy and overpriced. Drinks for a minimum of 4 euros are not even exceptional. Rip off the couches too. 25 euros for 3 hours. Toilets are cruel, the island is very dirty with people. If you've been around the world, you can actually save yourself that. (Original) Also Strände gibt es viel schönere auf dieser Welt. Alles total touristisch und überteuert. Getränke für 4 Euro minimum sind noch nicht mal außergewöhnlich. Abzocke auch bei den Liegen. 25 Euro für 3 Stunden. Toiletten sind grausam, die Insel vom Menschen sehr verdreckt. Wenn man schon auf der Welt rumgekommen ist, kann man sich das eigentlich sparen.

    Beautiful island and not so crowded with tourists. There are many sports and other fun activities available. There is a big difference between high and low tide. It's interesting to see the change that happens very quickly. Worth a visit.

    What a beautiful place this is. If you're prepared to walk just a few hundred metres away from the main drop-off point you'll find some unspoilt, perfect beaches. There's also a good footpath around the island that is shady in places and quite easy going.

    (Translated by Google) Private island where cruise ships go, in the part where it is docked and where you can swim it was not much, full of people. About knowing is nice eastern part (to the ocean), where is cut less people. Ideal is to take a walk along the coast, where the beaches are almost popular. Just watch out for the lakes, which here is really a lot (directly on the beach you the seller opens for consumption). A total of 1 hour of snorchlovani about 1 km from the coast for 800 MRU. (Original) Soukromy ostrov kam jezdi vyletni lode, v casti kde se pristava a kde se mate koupat to nebylo nic moc, plno lidi. O poznani hezci je vychodni cast (k oceanu), kde je vyrezne mene lidi. Idealni je projit se jeste dal po pobrezi, kde jsou plaze uz skoro liduprazdne. Jen pozor na jezovky, kterych tu je opravdu hodne (primo na plazi Vam je prodejce otevre ke konzumaci). Celkem fajn hodinove snorchlovani asi 1 km od pobrezi za 800 MRU.

    Beautiful island worth the trip. Just make sure to bring sea shoes or be extra careful because there are a loooot of sea urchins. Lots of tourists yes, but I mean, complaining about too many tourists is like complaining about traffic.. You are a part of it too!

    Île aux Cerfs is a privately owned island near the east coast of Mauritius in the Flacq District. The island of Ile aux Cerfs lies off Trou d’Eau Douce in the largest lagoon of Mauritius and offers 87 hectares of luxuriant vegetation and preserved, white, sandy beaches.

    One of the most beautiful island of Mauritius. Clean water and so many options available for speed boat, snorkeling , waterfall visit , parasailing. You can have a caterman cruse tour with lunch. Best place to visit.

  • 5/5 Francois de V. 5 years ago on Google
    Incredible island, beautiful white sandy beeches and turquoise water. Had the best time here. Went parasailing and was quite an experience seeing the surroundings via the skies... will definitely recommend visiting the island for the day.

    Absolutely amazing place everyone MUST see, when visiting Mauritius. It's one of the most beautiful place I have ever been. Sport Activities are really expensive, I was only snorkeling at the stunning beach. Beware of many sea urchins. The food at the little Restaurant was really good!

  • 5/5 Abdullah Rozi B. 5 years ago on Google
    Great experience and amaizing scenery. It is like 5 stars camping with a private beach. The best bubble by far is the lake bubble. You got to have your own private lake the ocean is few steps away. By about 4:30 pm, all visitors usually leaves the island and we have it all to our selves. We were lucky that it was full moon at night but a bit cloudy. We liked the food and we had a romantic dinner set up next to the club house there, and it was amazing. We were lucky to also try the banian tree bubble. The bubble is surrounded by tall trees and there is a private yard with a swing chair and a round table and chairs. Great nature in the morning and a litte spooky at night. The public beach is beautiful and there are lots of activities. Finally, the staff and the service are great. You get to have your own butler, who will take you around the island at your request. We had a great memorable experience there.

  • 4/5 Arun P. 1 year ago on Google
    A beautiful island to visit if you are in Mauritius.. You will get to the island via a 10 min speed boat drive. You got few water activities there and there is only one restaurant which is bit costly. Swim in the shallow water and explore the island !!

    Nice beachbut nothing special. When snorkeling you can see some fish, but rather small and not very many different colorful fish. East coast is very windy and has many sea urchins. Beach needs some cleanup. Toilets are dirty.

  • 5/5 João Júlio Alves L. 10 months ago on Google
    I recommend Tino Boats for a great experience with a speed boat, lunch and peaceful time in a quite part of the island. It was perfect and it was a good and fair price. Tips are welcome and recommended.

    When looking how to reach ile aux cerfs I used Google and tap ile aux cerfs and unfortunately I landed at grand river south east.you should always tap Trou D'eau Douce and you will reach the embarkation point to get to the Island. Do not trust anybody. My choice is 'Iles aux cerfs Watersports' and they gave you receipt to every activities.Being a mauritian this was the first time I enjoyed a lot as previously there were some people who would fooled you with promises. Dont trust these canvassers on the island they would fool you.

    When Mark Twain said, "Mauritius was made first and then heaven, and that heaven was copied after Mauritius." He was probably referring to the beauty of Ile Aux Cerfs. Irrespective of do I agree to 👆 or not. I'd agree to its eye catching heavenly captivating beauty. This island trip was indeed the highlight of Mauritius, simply surreal and picturesque. There are a number of activities that can be done during this day trip; which you can choose and book according to your budget and liking 🏝️ Water sports such as parasailing 🏝️ Golf 🏝️ Catamaran cruise 🏝️ Grand river waterfalls 🏝️ Adventure park

    (Translated by Google) Lovely little island. It is better to take a boat that with about 500 rupees takes you to and pick you up at the agreed time of departure. There are over 3 km of beach, stopping in the first 500 meters is a real shame. Just take a walk to find corners of paradise with no one, if you decide to go on the left side, pay attention to the tide because on your return you may have to get wet to return to the boarding point. There are many hedgehogs, if you don't have rock climbing shoes, be careful where you put your feet. Relaxation is assured by moving a little. There are a couple of restaurants on the island, I think it is better to bring food and water and move around to fully enjoy the beauty of the island (Original) Isoletta incantevole. Conviene prendere una barchetta che con circa 500 rupie vi porta a e vi riprendere all'orario concordato in partenza. Ci sono oltre 3 km di spiaggia, fermarsi nei primi 500 metri è davvero un gran peccato. Basta fare una passeggiata per trovare angoli di paradiso senza nessuno, se si decide di andare sul lato sinistro attenzione alla marea perchè al ritorno potreste dovervi bagnare per tornare al punto di imbarco. Ci sono molti ricci, se non si hanno le scarpette da scoglio attenzione a dove si mettono i piedi. Il relax è assicurato spostandosi un pò. Ci sono un paio di ristoranti sull'isola, credo sia meglio portarsi cibo e acqua e spostarsi per godere appieno della bellezza dell'isola
