We booked a private speedboat excursion to ĂŽle aux Cerfs with Totof Tours, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. The whole experience was excellent, and the team was fantastic from start to finish.
The team was very responsive and accommodating, even handling some of our last-minute requests with no issue. The journey itself was beautiful, with stunning views all the way to Île aux Cerfs. We also stopped for some snorkelling, which turned out to be the best snorkelling we’ve had in Mauritius—clear waters, plenty of colourful fish, and vibrant marine life.
Along the way, we visited Lighthouse Island, but when we found it too crowded, we asked the captain if we could skip it. He was flexible and immediately adjusted the plan, taking us instead to the fish farms, where we were lucky enough to spot dolphins.
Lunch on ĂŽle aux Cerfs was another highlight, with an excellent spread that included chicken, fish, lobster, and a wide variety of drinks. Everything was delicious and well-prepared.
On the return journey, we asked if we could stop for an additional snorkelling session, even though we were already past our scheduled time. The captain and guide were more than happy to accommodate, taking us to a quiet spot with only a few boats around. The snorkelling there was magical, with plenty of fish and even the incredible bonus of spotting sea turtles.
Overall, everything about this excursion was amazing—the flexibility, the professionalism of the team, the food, and the unforgettable experiences both above and below the water. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely do it again. Highly...
   Read moreFabulous half day tour with Totof! We did the tour with our 3yo and it was absolutely fine. He was thrilled to see the colourful fish through the glass bottom boat. We had 2 snorkeling stops. They even had snorkeling gear on the boat to use, so don't worry if you don't have your own. We later stopped at the island across Blue Bay for lunch. We'd paid 500rupee supplement for the lobster and it was delicious! The lunch location could have been improved though..we were standing amongst some trees at the side of a private resort, so that felt a little random. But overall, a lovely relaxed half day out in the lovely lagoon surrounded by good company and picturesque...
   Read moreWe had a great half day tour with lunch on Ile des deux cocos. Two fabulous spot points for snorkeling. Yannick took us to the wrecked ship and explained everything very well. We had a bite in Île aux Aigrettes while down the boat into the clear water of the lagoon. Thanks for the easy contact to Vanessa and Virginie (on the beach), but the great merit goes to Yannick one of the best skippers I've found in Mauritius who was attentive to us all the time, advising and explaining us. The frozen drinks during the trip on board were just super, delicious. Thanks Yannick for everything. If you are planning a boat trip in Blue Bay, contact to...
