Airport Car Rental
Located on the main island of the Mauritius archipelago, the nation’s largest airport is only a stone’s throw away from many of its most notable tourist attractions. In addition to world-class beaches that make people travel halfway across the world, there are also nature preserves and plenty of culture to be discovered. These are three of the most interesting attractions of Mauritius:
- Port Louis. Mauritius is all about the beach, but there’s also plenty of history and culture to be found, and the best place to explore it is Port Louis. The capital and largest city, it is known for landmarks like Aapravasi Ghat, a landing point of contracted Indian laborers who were the ancestors of the majority of the island’s present-day population (it is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Citadelle Fort, and Port Louis Cathedral.
- Black River Gorges. A national park about a 45-minute drive south of Port Louis, Black River Gorges is the best place to enjoy Mauritius’ wild nature. Made up of both tropical rainforest and drier heathland, it has about 60 km (37 miles) of hiking trails and is notable for its diversity of flora and fauna that includes species like the Mauritian flying fox and pink pigeon. If you like the national park, you might also enjoy the neighboring Color Valley Nature Park which is just to the east.
- Grand Bay. There’s plenty of serene coastal spots in Mauritius, but if you’re looking for a more lively experience, the town of Grand Bay (also spelled Grand Baie) might be for you. Notable for its developed coastline and energetic nightlife, it is also known for its orchards, as well as great diving. The trip from Port Louis takes about 30 minutes by car.

Terminals
The single passenger terminal serves both local and international flights. It was opened in 2013 and is designed to resemble Ravenala or “Traveller’s palm,” a tropical plant that grows in Mauritius and on other islands in the Indian Ocean.
Location
The airport is located about 48 km (30 mi) southeast of Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius, a trip that takes slightly less than one hour by car. Motorways M2 and M1 are the main roads connecting Mauritius Airport to Port Louis. Many other famous Mauritian destinations are also near the airport - Black River Gorges National Park is 30 km (18 mi) west and can be reached in 40 minutes, Curepipe is 25 km (16 mi) northwest and can be reached in 25 minutes, and Blue Bay is just 11 km (6.8 mi) southeast and takes 15 minutes to reach by a rental car.

We had a dream trip to Mauritius. Used the car to travel around the whole island. We were staying in one hotel but was able to see all beaches around the island. We also did subscooter dive, snorkeling, kayaking, clear boat trip, apart from wining and dining in meditation, Indian and Asian fusion restaurants. And also did half a day city tour in Port Louis.

Mauritius is an amazing island to explore by car and opens up the freedom to visit amazing beaches that are further away from the resorts. If you only stay in the resorts and are not moving around a lot, then transport can be easily arranged with the resort. We would rent a car for a similar trip again depending on the type of trip we do.
