So amidst all the wedding planning, you\u2019re considering a place that is tropical, laid-back, relaxing and romantic for your honeymoon, and Mauritius pops up as a likely contender. Beware, you\u2019re in choppy waters with this thought. Here\u2019s why Mauritius is the worst place to visit for your honeymoon \u2013<\/p>

  1. The Worst Scenic Destination Ever<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

    The undisturbed white sand beaches, deep turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, cleanliness maintained by the locals, the volcanic mountains, forests and Mauritian architecture are not much to be in awe of. It\u2019s not like there are many photo-ops scenes all around you. It only ranks 3rd in the African region\u2019s tourist destinations.<\/p>

    1. Bland Food<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

      So what if the food is a mix of Creole, Indian, French and Chinese cuisine especially famous for its lip-smacking seafood? The food, from the tempting streets to fine-dining is still bland and unaffected, by the locally brewed fresh rum and the resulting creative cocktails.<\/p>

      1. No Romance or Relaxation<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

        After the wedding bustle, you\u2019d think you\u2019ll get the relaxation your body so craves here. But the intimate and private couples massages lasting two to three hours, full body exfoliations, Mauritian fusion spas from different cultures and hydrating baths, sometimes included in\u00a0Mauritius honeymoon packages<\/a><\/strong>, just don\u2019t cut it. As if you\u2019d find private pools, sunbathing on the pristine beaches and swims in the warm ocean water, romantic!<\/p>

        1. Dull Life<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

          How much excitement can scuba diving to the vibrant underwater marine life, kite-surfing, paddle-boarding, couples\u2019 parasailing, skydiving, ski-riding, horse-riding, zip-lining, quad-biking, snorkelling, kayaking and island hopping across Pereybere, Belle Mare, Grand Bay and Blue Bay, truly bring?<\/p>

          1. No Luxurious Indulgence<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

            Mauritius tour packages<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>may offer renting a car for touring around spontaneously, living in three to five star accommodation on the beaches, championship golf courses and shopping for local delights such as hand-carved furniture, art pieces, rugs, etc. which are clearly not much of a luxurious indulgence, newlyweds would crave.<\/p>

            1. Boring Ecology<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

              Top\u00a0places to visit in Mauritius<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0like the Black River Gorges National Park, the Pamplemousses botanical garden, the lake of Grand Bassin along with underwater corals and marine life, long-living giant tortoises, multitude of bird species and over 700 flowering plants say nothing about Mauritius\u2019 ecology.<\/p>

              1. Nothing Wow about it<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

                The Chamarel Village, known for its Chamarel waterfalls and Seven-Coloured Earth tell us how there\u2019s just no wow factor to this honeymoon destination. The treasure island of Ile Aux Cerfs, the dormant volcano of Trou -aux-Cerfs, the sunsets and sunrises, personal helicopter moves, sky dives further undermine the wow factor.<\/p>

                As you may have guessed, of course this narrative is obviously sarcastic. Mauritius is a breath-taking experience ideal to kick off the married life innings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
