in Mauritius.

the local rum, stamps, arts and crafts from Madagascar, spices, weaving goods,
like bags and hats.
Flowers: Don't miss buying a bunch of Anthurium to bring back home!
Especially packed for the flight, enjoy your flowers up to three weeks at

If you are staying in some of self catering units its better you visit the
closet shopping boutiques e.g if you are staying at Flic-en-Flacq you surely
would go to Wolmar Store where you will always get the good price deals on
groceries and even gift articles which you can pack home.
You surely would find the weekly markets in some the main towns like Quatre-Bornes,
RoseHill, Curepipe, Vacoas, Port-Louis and you
will be surprised visiting the unique type of bazar where you can expect to
see every thing for very low prices.
Visit the market in Port-Louis (Le Bazar central
de Port-Louis), for tablecloths and fabrics, basketwork as well as a wealth
of spices. Port-Louis also hosts colourful Indian and Chinese 'boutiques'
offering an improbable variety of household articles. T-shirt shopping is
a MUST!!, nowhere else will you find such a wide variety of export-quality
T-shirts at bargain prices.
The most popular places for these are the markets in Port-Louis and Quatre-Bornes, but you will find T-shirts about anywhere you go. Local craft is also particularly rich, ranging from the shells, bracelets, necklaces, and pagnes which merchants will offer you on the beachfront to the sophisticated ship models you can find in various shops (why, you can even acquire maquettes of Nelson's 'HMS Victory' or of Napoleon's ill-fated 'Le Superbe'). Gold jewelry and gems can also be relatively inexpensive in Mauritius.
