Port Mathurin is the ideal destination to enjoy a calm and peaceful vacation. The main market area of the city best exemplifies its colourful and buoyant spirit. Each colourful stall has something special to offer. The basketry and chilli-based preparations are not to be missed here.
The best way to explore the city is on foot. Discover some of the most beautiful colonial homes on the island. The picturesque village town is complete with a typical village church and a small mosque.
Though there are no museums here, there is memorial to commemorate those who lost their lives in the World War II. Another site of interest is the Statue of the Solitaire (an endemic bird that disappeared in the eighteenth century).
The workshop of the ‘Craft Aid’ is a must visit. A small enterprise that employs handicapped individuals, Craft Aid produces some of the most exquisite jewellery, made of coconut shells.
