About
Found on Mauritius, Cascade Mare aux Joncs sits in Vacoas-Phoenix, placing it in the island's central uplands.

The site's position in the interior anchors it away from the coastal strip.
Cascade Mare aux Joncs holds a 4.6 out of 5 average across 133 reviews. The attraction is known for its cascade setting in the Vacoas-Phoenix area. Port Louis, Grand Baie, Flic en Flac, Pereybère, Beau-Vallon, Le Morne, Belle Mare and Mahébourg are among the nearby places that frame a visit.
Visitors arriving from Port Louis reach the site by road, and the routes continue to the island's other towns. The Vacoas-Phoenix location keeps the attraction within the central part of the island.
Mauritius and Rodrigues have a tropical maritime climate, warm all year and cooled by the southeast trade winds, with the cooler, drier months falling between June and September. The cyclone season runs from November to April, so travel plans are best weighted towards the drier stretch. Sega music and dance, led by the ravanne drum, are traditional on both Mauritius and Rodrigues.
