description: Mauritius, Rodrigues and Reunion together make up the Mascarene Islands. Some 800km apart in the Indian Ocean, the islands have become a mecca for honeymooners and those in search of the perfect destination to get away from it all. Yet there is more to the Mascarenes than idyllic beaches and moonlit terraces. Each island has its own unique attractions. Nature lovers will be drawn to the stark beauty of the Mauritian mountains, the volcanic landscape of Reunion or the coral reefs of Rodrigues, while opportunities to explore off the beaten track include cycling, mountain hiking and abseiling. Discover it for yourself with this invaluable Bradt Guide. Inside is detailed information on hotels and restaurants for all budgets; first-time coverage of the French Island of Reunion; expanded natural history section; people and culture; conservation and nature reserves; canyoning, caving and other adventure activities; diving snorkelling and deep-sea fishing.
