Visit Curious Mauritius in Chamarel for a unique interactive attraction with optical illusions, Mauritian culture, fun photo spots and family-friendly activities near Seven Coloured Earth.
Curious Mauritius is one of the most original attractions to visit in Chamarel, especially if you are looking for a fun, family-friendly activity that goes beyond the usual beach, waterfall or viewpoint stop. Located directly opposite the famous Seven Coloured Earth, this interactive experience invites visitors to discover Mauritius in a playful and creative way, with optical illusions, Mauritian-themed rooms, immersive displays and plenty of fun photo opportunities. What makes Curious Mauritius special is that it mixes entertainment with local culture, nature and discovery, making it enjoyable for children, adults, couples and groups of friends. It is the kind of place where you do not simply walk around and look; you take part, laugh, pose, learn and create memories together. As a local, I would recommend adding Curious Mauritius to a Chamarel day trip, especially if you are already visiting Chamarel Waterfall, Seven Coloured Earth, Black River Gorges or Le Morne. It is also a great option when you want a slower, more relaxed activity after hiking or exploring the south-west coast. After the visit, you can stop at the on-site restaurant for a meal or drink before continuing your road trip through one of the most scenic regions of Mauritius.
