Essentials For Grand Baie

3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Luggage and bags: Cooling Bags, Cooling blocs

Basic essentials, but again not easy to get hold of over there. They are well worth the extra luggage when they keep that midday rum and coke nice and chilled when the temperature is bursting 30c

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Upset Stomach pills because all them cocktails at Banana Beach Club do start to take their toll! Not to mention the legendary Noodle Man who trades opposite the petrol station....that spicy noodle fest is divine (best in the world infact!) but in the morning you can wake up with a few side affects of the hottest chilli this side of Mexico....

Photo Equipment: Batteries...they arent very reliable in Mauritius and also cost the earth because they are imported. Best stocking up at home and bringing a decent supply.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Some smart evening wear is essential, but forget about the suit and long trousers! Long shorts seem to be the key to enjoying the warm nights. Remember, the temperature rarely falls below 20c even after dark.

Miscellaneous: You must try the rotti from the lady who trades on the road leading to Super U. Absoloute bargain at just 5p each, and her fillings are amazing!!!
