Eau Bleue
Cluny · Grand Port
DurationAbout 5 minutes’ walk to the waterfall
Eau Bleue is in the south-east of Mauritius, near the village of Cluny, among the sugar cane fields, forty-five minutes from Port Louis. The main fall, thirty metres high, stands behind thick forest and a tangle of tree roots. The pool has the colour that gave the place its name.

What sets it apart
The pool is the reason to come: the water is a deep blue, and people swim in it. A swing lets swimmers launch themselves in. Several falls follow one another along the same stream for a longer visit, and experienced local guides lead abseiling and river trekking there, by prior booking.
