MAURITIUS is pure magic—a jewel in the Indian Ocean where every sunrise feels like a gentle invitation to indulge. The beaches are nothing short of breathtaking: think Belle Mare’s endless white sands, Le Morne’s dramatic backdrop, and the crystal-clear turquoise waters of Île aux Cerfs.

But it's not just about lounging—Mauritius is made for adventure. Snorkel or dive among vibrant coral reefs, hike through the lush Black River Gorges National Park, chase waterfalls like Tamarind Falls, or swim with dolphins off the west coast.

Add in a warm, welcoming culture, world-class resorts, Creole cuisine, and just the right touch of island sophistication—and you’ve got a destination that’s impossible to forget.

TODAY we honor one of Africa’s most graceful and mysterious big cats — the leopard.

Powerful yet elusive, leopards are known for their stealth, strength, and that signature move: napping in trees. With their limbs draped over branches and tails swaying lazily in the breeze, they can sleep up to 15 hours a day — proving that even the fiercest predators know the value of a good rest.

Thank you to organisations like Cape Leopard Trust that make a huge contribution to the awareness and protection of leopards.

At Africa by Heart, we’ve spent over 30 years creating journeys that truly connect you to the soul of this incredible continent. Let us show you the Africa that captured our hearts — and will capture yours too.
