Quick Answer
Is March not the ideal time to visit Mauritius?
March falls in Mauritius's toughest travel window (January – March). This is cyclone season — the risk of storms directly affecting the island is highest, along with heavier, more humid rainfall. That said, it's usually the cheapest time to go if you can work around the trade-offs.
Mauritius's overall best season is May–December, and the toughest window to plan around is January – March. See the full month-by-month guide to compare every month at a glance.
