Mauritius Map

Mauritius is located on the southeast coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean and is a relatively young island nation, which was caused by volcanic activity just 8 million years ago. Despite the volcanic eruption, there has been no activity on the island for 100,000 years. Much of the island rises from the coastal plain, surrounded by broken mountain ranges and streams and rivers flowing through ancient rifts formed by lava flows. White sand beaches surround the coast of Mauritius and are protected by the world's third largest coral reef from the sea. Almost a hundred uninhabited islands and rocks in coastal waters make it a popular weekend choice for locals and tourists alike.
