Outdoor Fitness
Running along coastal roads is popular, especially in the north (Grand Baie, Pereybere) and west (Flic en Flac). Hiking in Black River Gorges National Park offers challenging trails. Sea kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and cycling groups are all active.
Running Clubs
Hash House Harriers run weekly at rotating locations around the island — a great way to explore and meet people. Mauritius Athletics Association hosts formal events. Various expat running groups can be found on Facebook for all levels.
