About the Bel Ombre Off the Track Tour - Bel Ombre Nature Reserve

Time spent in nature is always rewarding for the body and soul — the fresh air filling your lungs and the scenery soothing your eyes is exactly what makes a nature escape so special. Now, add an adventurous ride through the wild landscapes of the South, and you’ve got a day out to remember!

Your package kicks off in the morning. Arrive 15 minutes before the start of the activity for a short briefing, where you’ll be shown how to handle your quad (solo or double) and provided with all safety equipment. A welcome drink sets the tone, and then it’s time to head out — ride across fields, forests, rivers, and up to one of the most breathtaking viewpoints in the South.

After about 2 hours of pure adrenaline and discovery, you’ll have the chance to relax over a delicious à la carte lunch at Kaz’alala, with an exclusive 20% discount on the menu — the perfect way to recharge after your adventure.

The experience continues with a visit to the World of Seashells, home to Africa’s largest collection with over 8,000 shells from 1,500 species. Here you’ll learn the fascinating science, myths, and stories behind these natural works of art, and discover how they reflect the fragility of our oceans. It’s an inspiring and colourful way to wrap up your day.

About the World of Seashells Museum

World of Seashells is the only Seashells museum in Mauritius.

Unique in Mauritius, World of Seashells presents 8,000 pieces from the collection of Mr. Le Court de Billot. This passionate Mauritian conchophile has collected seashells from around the world with concern of ecosystems and species. The collection began before him with his parents. They entrusted it to him as they also passed on their passion for shells.

During your visit, you will discover all the secrets of the shells: their morphology, their living mechanism, their defence system, the beautiful, perfect patterns and dreamy colours. You will also learn how humans have used shells throughout the world over the course of centuries.
