Discover Eau Bleu Waterfall in Mauritius, a beautiful hidden waterfall area known for turquoise natural pools, multiple cascades, lush tropical scenery and one of the best nature adventures in the south-east of the island.
Eau Bleu Waterfall is one of the most beautiful hidden nature spots in Mauritius, famous for its clear turquoise water, natural pools and peaceful tropical setting. Located in the south-east region of the island, this waterfall area is perfect for adventurous travellers who want to discover a wilder and more refreshing side of Mauritius beyond the beaches. The name “Eau Bleu” perfectly describes the colour of the water, which can appear bright blue and crystal clear on sunny days. What makes Eau Bleu special is that it is not just one single waterfall experience. The area is known for several small cascades, natural basins and scenic freshwater pools that can be explored depending on access, weather and safety conditions. Some visitors come for photography, others for a refreshing swim, and many come simply to enjoy the peaceful sound of running water surrounded by greenery. As a local, I would recommend visiting Eau Bleu with someone who knows the area, especially if you want to explore more than one waterfall or basin. The rocks can be slippery, water levels can change after rain, and some access points are not always easy to find. It is best visited on a sunny day, when the water colour is at its most beautiful and the trail is safer. Eau Bleu is ideal for nature lovers, photographers, couples, hikers and travellers looking for a more authentic waterfall adventure in Mauritius. It can also be combined with a south-east road trip including Mahébourg, Blue Bay, La Cambuse, Pont Naturel and the surrounding countryside.
