Most roads are well-maintained in Mauritius, meaning that a compact or economy vehicle without off-road capability will perform just fine. A more compact car may even be a good choice if you are staying in Belle Mare, as you will find it easier to fit into tight parking spaces or manoeuvre on crowded streets. However, if you’re travelling with a large group, a standard-size car or an SUV will give you more speed and power for driving on Mauritius’s more remote trails. A larger car will also give you great views for driving along the coast.

When you’re driving in Mauritius, you must pay attention to speed limit signs, as limits may vary across different areas.
