A private day on Mauritius’ west coast
A swim in the lagoon, lunch on board and time in good company. A closer look at a private day charter, from choosing your yacht to the little details that make it yours.

Some days in Mauritius deserve a little more space. Space to settle into the view, to linger over lunch, to be together without watching the clock. A private charter offers a different way to experience the west coast, with a yacht reserved for your party and a skipper and crew looking after the journey.
Begin with the coast
Black River is the starting point for the Bénitiers day charters. From La Balise Marina, the setting opens towards the lagoon and the green slopes of Le Morne. The shoreline becomes part of the view, rather than the place you are standing.
There is a plan for the day, but the sea has a say in it. Your skipper adapts the route to the weather and sea conditions. Think of the itinerary as an introduction to the coast, with the finer details guided by the day itself.
Choose your way to spend the day
Maga Kani brings the character of a motor yacht, with space to relax on deck and a day capacity of eight guests. C’est La Vie offers the setting of a sailing catamaran and welcomes up to thirteen guests on a day charter.
Both are private experiences. The choice is about your group and the kind of time you would like to share, whether that means a smaller gathering aboard Maga Kani or bringing more of your favourite people together on C’est La Vie.
Make room for lunch
On a full-day charter, lunch is part of the rhythm of being on board. After time in the water, there is something particularly lovely about sitting down together with the lagoon still around you.
The Bénitiers full-day listings include optional lobster menus and French Champagne. If either sounds right for your occasion, select the extras for your chosen cruise. Check the listing for the menu, inclusions and options available for your party.
Bring a little, leave time for the rest
Swimwear, sun protection and a camera are a good place to start. Include every adult and child in your guest count, and check the practical information on your chosen cruise before setting out. Your booking confirmation will give you the meeting details.
Beyond that, the pleasure is in having time together. A conversation on deck. A fresh perspective on a familiar coastline. A stretch of the afternoon with nowhere else you need to be.
