You are looking for tropical island that has more too offer than “just” beaches – look no further: Reunion is the answer. Mountains, waterfalls, dense forests, clouds and plenty of outdoor activities – just have a look and start to dream of your own trip to Reunion

When Babsi and I heard of the option to visit Mauritius before our main holiday destination – Reunion – we said: ´Yeah, let’s go´.

And we spent there seven beautiful days. You can read a little bit about the island or there are some galleries just for you.

The island itself offers plenty to do and if you need a refreshing thing, just go in the cristall clear water for a snorkeling trip
