January Very hot as expected but with a slight breeze that was cooling beautiful sunny days a very heavy showers but they were welcome as it feshened everythimg up. We did have the added excitment of an approaching cyclone which eventually ended up in Madacascar we had a tropical storm which was unbelievable and somrthing I would not have missed.

January very hot
January Excellent - we were really lucky.
January great
January Good.
January Roughly about 30 degrees, mostly sunny with a few brief cloudy spells. It poured down briefly in the afternoon on a couple of days out of the fortnight, but was never an issue. It looked that the hotel (Dinarobin) was somehow sheltered from wetter weather on the mainland by Le Morne.
February Being that this was a 1 week mid February visit, the weather was surprisingly very warm and pleasant most days, on a few of these days the weather was mixed with light showers which did not last long,then the sun would again shine through, there is a welcome and constant underlying breeze which can towards dusk get quite strong, but all in all February can be a pleasant time of year to visit Mauritius and top up on that suntan.
February Rained quite a lot, but also had a lot of sun. Rained solidly for 2 days, apart from that just showers. Somehow the rain isn't as bad when it's hot!
February Grey sky on our wedding day. General good but some rain in Mauritius.

April Perfect!
April The weather was good, we only had one proper rainy day, and a couple of showers the rest of the time. We think this was a perfect time to travel to Mauritius, not uncomfortably hot, but still quite warm enough for enjoying the sea and sun, and suitable for sightseeing.
April We had good weather the sun was out everyday, we had two days when we got caught in a down pour and one day when it was a little cloudy but other that the weather was great
April Weather was hot but changeable - was cloudy most days and showers. We stayed for 14 days and 3 days were blue skies and no rain.
May Our weather was fairly mixed. It was generally sunny but we had some overcst days and also some rain. It was still a fantastic trip and apparently this was unusual weather for this time of year. As we were going to Dubai afterwrds to be greeted with circa 40DegC we weren't too bothered!
May Breathtaking - most mornings we opened the curtains to blue sunny skies. If there was the odd cloudy morning, it soon dispersed and the temperature was always the same - just perfect.
May We went in May and the weather was typically mid to high 20's and was mainly sunny. Perfect for us. There was a small amount of cloud and wind and very occasional rain, not a problem though.
May good, i hope!!!
May Warm and sunny , a little cloud from time to time but lovely to sun bathe in. Sun gone at 4.30 /5 though as moving towards winter.
May couple of hours in first couple of days where there a bit of rain
May Good, a bit windy but if it wasn't for the wind the humidity could become too much
May very good. mid to high 20's . bit of rain but short bursts, as expected
May 95% Sunny with occasional cloud although warm from 07:00 till 16:45 when the sun set.
May Very hot (with tropical rain showers every day. It was starting their winter period
May Weather was awful, frankly. Of the ten days we were there, only three days had no rain, and 5 days had constant rain.
May Windy and Warm, typical of the time of year.
May The weather was mixed. We were staying to the South West where it apparantly gets better weather than the rest of the island, and typically it was nice and warn and sunny except the odd day where it was pouring with rain for most of the day! Out of a 2 weeks stay, maybe 2 or 3 days were rainy.
May one day of little rain in ten not to bad going. Very hot but had a nice breeze
May Good, although veryovercast nt
May The first week was perfect the second week was a bit cloudy and we had two days of rain but found this nice as an experience as we were on bikes and it was fun plus the couple of cloudy days gave us a break from the heat etc.
May First week was overcast and breezy with a few scattered showers but hot. Second week no showers, hot and breezy.
May We were there for 10 nights. When we landed it rained for the day, then apart from one or two quick torrential showers we had fantastic sunshine and little wind. All in all excellent weather.
May warm and rained.
May Not to hot with a bit of rain
May When we arrived it was raining and we were told it was the Mauritian winter. It never rained again, It was truly lovely weather for the whole fortnight, like the best English summers days. Not uncomfortably hot, just lovely with the odd white cloud for respite.
May A couple of heavy rainshowers during the two weeks but otherwise lovely and sunny. Quite windy at times, though.
May Sunny the whole time - absolutely gorgeous!
May We didn't realise that this time of year for the Winter for Mauritus but the weather was good. Temperatures around 26-28. We have a couple of days' rain but all in all was good.
June cool but lovely
June Warm, blue sky with the odd cloud drfting across, quite windy but very warm
June We stayed for 10 nights and the weather was sunny and bright every day. We had a short burst of heavy rain on a couple of days but with the warm sun, it soon cleared over and dried everything out.
June Windy and warm perfect
June Changeable but ok on the whole
June The weather was very changeable and unpredictable, on the whole it was pretty cool and overcast for most of the time we were there with some rain. There were a few days when the sun came out and really beat down which was nice. Also, it was quite windy a lot of the time. Don't let this put you off going though, we spent all the time we were there wondering around in shorts and T-Shirt, it never got too cold and we both came back with lovely tans. There is so much to see and do in Mauritius that the weather cannot put a downer on.
June perfect
June Very nice, around 23-24 degrees, virtually all day. There was a nice breeze as well, as we were right by the sea. There was the odd over cast day, but nothing to worry about.
June It was plesant but did rain a few days wehile we were there. Would of liked it hotter and dryer.
June The weather was very good in low to mid twenties and overcast at times during the day. There was a couple of days when it did rain but nothing to change the outcome and enjoyment of our holiday. My wife does not like it too sunny but was happy to sit in the sun in June in Mauritius. It may not be hot enough for everyone but it was what we wanted.
June perfect, sunny but not too hot.
June Good weather throughout with warm breeze. No rain during day at all, a couple of showers overnight. Over all very good. Stop over at Dubai - Extremely hot almost unbearable but definitely worth a visit. Thank goodness for aircon ! We did visit at the hight of summer so we expected this.

Quite windy in the first week.
July Warm & a little windy

August Warm, some rain but nice.
August First 2 days rained on and off, rest of the holiday was beautiful sunshine
August Warm with an occasional strong brezze.
August Mainly sunny with some cloud. Rained occasionally but never lasted too long. Temperatures were around 20 - 25 degrees centigrade. This was comfortable to sit out in and made it easier to sunbathe for longer.
August It was mostly sunny and we spent most days on the beach - however it did rain a little bit on about half of the days and some days it was very windy.
August Variable!
August We had 3 or 4 overcast days (out of 11) that were still very warm but not exactly sunbathing weather. The rest of the time it was glorious sunshine
August It rained for half of our holiday - which spoilt the atmosphere. We were told it would be sunny and hot. Evening were cold, and a jacket had to be worn - which was not what we had been advised or expected. Because of all the rain, we could not eat outside in the evenings, and due to the rain a ridiculous amount of frogs were at the resort which kept us awake ALL NIGHT! as they were very loud!
August we had 2 days of rain and then it was high 20.
August It was gorgeous, sunny and warm, we did have one or two days of cloudy days but it was still warm. The evening were lovely to, you do need a cardigan sometimes for the evening.

August good.
August The first week was mainly cloudy with a bit of rain, on the second week it rained all day on the Tuesday but then it was hot and sunny for the rest of the holiday.
August As expected mostly warm and sunny, with rain showers at times that quickly passed over.
August lovely sunny days with a midday temperature around 80f. slight breeze (I hate windy holidays e.g Hilton Tobago comes to mind but this was very pleasant) kept you from getting too hot or humid. Rained, when it did mostly in the middle of the night but we did have one rainy overcast day. Not bad for a winter month.overall probably the best weather I have experienced on a tropical island
August The weather was perfect for 90% of the time. We had one day of full rain but there was so much to do in the hotel it did not spoil the holiday. Also some days were cloudy but still very warm so we were still in the pool and on the beach.
August good
August Some overcast days and a little rain but this did not disrupt our holiday.
August wet
August good
August Sunny blue skies all but one day. Temperature not scorching but plenty hot enough to sit comfortably sunbathing for most of the day. Water temperature has warm enough to spend hours in without getting cold.
August Some days were rainy and cloudy but most days were sunny and warm.
August Please bare in mind that Mauritius is in its winter season at the moment, the east cost of the Island will and does experience heavy winds and you really do feel it on the East Coast. We stayed on the Northern part of the Island where the weather is significantly better, in fact it satyed sunny and very hot for most of our stay with the gentle sea breeze giving that cooling effect. We did experience some rain but as you would expect it is a tropical Island after all, even then it was still very warm. The West and South of Island, weather can be increasingly unpredictable as the heavy wind from the East Coast would tend to blow in rain clouds and overall it tends to feel cooler. If you are going to Stay in Mauritius during August try and stay North of the Island.
August Lovely Temperatures with high fast moving clouds. Temperatures were mid 20's most of the time with an occasional short sharp shower which certainly didn't ruin any of our days!
August The weather was ok. A little overcast some days but still warm. We also had quite a few rain showers but they never lasted long.
August Rained most days
