Tuesday, June 17
North Coast (Grand Baie, Pereybere)
A few early morning clouds and brief drizzle are possible, but the sun dominates by mid-morning. Winds blow from the southeast at 25–30 km/h, and the high reaches around 27 °C. The weather remains mostly pleasant throughout the day—ideal for beach time and outdoor dining.
Northwest Coast (Mont Choisy, Trou aux Biches)
Similar conditions to the north: a mild, partly cloudy start followed by extended sunshine. The sea is calm within the lagoon, and the weather here ranks among the best on the island for Tuesday. Expect highs of 26–27 °C and moderate breezes.
Port Louis & Central Plateau
The central plateau may experience 1–2 mm of morning rain between 08:00–11:00, but skies clear by early afternoon. Wind gusts can reach 50 km/h over ridge tops. The city center sees more sunshine, with highs near 27 °C. The weather here is variable but manageable—keep a light jacket handy.
West Coast (Flic en Flac, Tamarin)
Sheltered from the southeast winds, the west coast enjoys stable and dry weather. Clear skies and light breezes (~15–20 km/h) make for perfect swimming and snorkeling conditions. UV levels are moderate to high, so sun protection is recommended.
Southwest Coast (Le Morne)
Brisk winds (30–40 km/h) funnel through the mountain pass, with gusts up to 60 km/h on the summit. Waves beyond the reef reach 2–3 meters, offering excellent conditions for advanced kite and windsurfing. Air temperatures hold around 26 °C.
South Coast (Bel Ombre)
Early morning clouds bring a chance of light drizzle from 07:00 to 10:00. The wind remains strong, and sea conditions are rough (3 meters outside the reef). Temperatures remain mild at 25 °C, and the lagoon is the safest area for swimming. The weather here improves steadily throughout the day.
South Coast (Blue Bay, Mahebourg)
Partly cloudy skies early, improving toward noon. The sea remains choppy with wave heights near 3 meters outside the reef. Air temperatures reach 26 °C, and the wind may gust up to 45 km/h. Stick to the lagoon for safe swimming and boating.
East Coast (Belle Mare, Trou d’Eau Douce)
The strongest winds (35–45 km/h) occur here. Some light morning showers may drift ashore before giving way to brighter skies. The weather is cooler than the west but still enjoyable for coastal walks and sightseeing.

North Coast
More stable weather returns with a mostly sunny morning. Winds remain fresh (25 km/h), and temperatures reach 27–28 °C. A few clouds arrive later, but rain is unlikely until evening.
Northwest Coast
Another beautiful beach day with a mild breeze and calm seas. The weather remains dry throughout the day with highs near 27 °C. UV levels remain elevated.
Port Louis & Highlands
Clouds begin to thicken after noon, and light showers may arrive in the late afternoon or early evening. The Mauritius Meteorological Services predicts “intermittent rain” but in low quantities (<2 mm). Expect 26–27 °C during the day.
West Coast
Sun-drenched and calm once again. The breeze stays light (15–20 km/h), and the sea inside the reef remains perfect for kayaking and paddleboarding. The weather continues to favor outdoor recreation here.
Southwest Coast (Le Morne)
Still breezy, but the wind drops slightly (30–35 km/h). Wave heights decrease to 2–2.5 meters. This area remains a hub for water sports enthusiasts thanks to dependable wind and open surf.
South Coast (Bel Ombre)
Less cloud in the morning, but by mid-afternoon, light showers may reappear. Air temperature reaches 25–26 °C. The sea is rough beyond the reef, so keep water activities close to shore.
South Coast (Blue Bay, Mahebourg)
Bright morning skies give way to some late-day cloud build-up and possible drizzle. Winds remain steady around 30 km/h. The weather remains warm, with highs of 26 °C and decent visibility throughout the day.
East Coast
The east stays windier, and cloud cover increases during the afternoon. Showers are expected between 15:00 and 19:00. Outside the reef, waves measure around 2.5–3 meters. The weather is more dynamic here, so beach time is best planned for the morning.
Sunrise: 06:43 • Sunset: 17:37
High Tide: 04:31 & 17:47 • Low Tide: 11:06 & 23:04
The weather in Mauritius for June 17 and 18 is shaped by fresh trade winds, broken cloud, and brief rain showers in the southeast and highlands. Tuesday offers longer dry spells and warmer sunshine, while Wednesday sees more widespread clouds and spotty rain from mid-afternoon. For reliable weather, head to the north and west coasts. Always monitor local updates from the Mauritius Meteorological Services—especially if you plan hiking or open-sea activities.
