Beach sports (soccer, volleyball, etc.): are they common in Mauritius?

Hello everyone.


I've been in Mauritius a bit and I've noticed that beach sport activities are not very common (in the North).


I'd like to play or even start a club for people to play these sports, but I am not sure if there is any interest in such a thing by the locals or even the expats.


Do people like or want to play beach sports like volleyball, beach soccer or beach tennis?

Hello Rushikay,


I've seen and watched a couple of matches at Flic en Flac in Summer. Haven't been to the beach since quite some time unfortunately.


Starting a club seems to be a good idea. Let's see who joins in from Expat.com

Thanks for the quick reply Bhavna.


I've asked a few Mauritian friends and they don't even know what volleyball is 1f62e.svg


I am surprised because volleyball is usually popular on holiday islands similar to Mauritius.

Oh that's a shame ! There's even a beach Arena at Blue Bay Beach with all infrastructure to play volleyball/football etc


We even had a beach volley competition (ended June) : https://lexpress.mu/article/423569/beac … -simposent


I guess that's why I saw a couple of matches at Flic en Flac earlier this year.

*** Unfortunately for the time being there is no competion for the soccer .
