Mauritian ‘Seafood’?
Seafood in Mauritius is not just a staple of the local diet; it is also a lifeline for many coastal communities. From freshly caught fish and octopus to crabs and lobsters, the island’s abundant marine life provides the foundation for countless traditional dishes. What makes Mauritian seafood unique is its direct connection to the fishermen who head out at dawn, braving the ocean to bring back the day’s catch.
By choosing seafood dishes from local vendors and seaside restaurants, you’re not only tasting the freshest flavours of our lagoon, but also supporting the livelihoods of small-scale fishermen and their families. It’s a way of keeping traditions alive, sustaining coastal economies, and honouring the bond between Mauritians and the sea.
