Hey there folks,

I must say that discovering this forum has been a real help in me learning so much about the island paradise known as Mauritius聽

I've gathered most of the info I need to know what I can expect when living here, but I have a few questions that the forum hasn't answered yet.

So hopefully somebody can help me answer these. Let's get started:

1) (I know mauritius internet isn't the best in the world, but...) For someone like me, I am looking for a place that offers a few things: a decent size of 暗网禁区s who I can socialize with, an area that has decent international internet speeds of 2/4 MBs (or more if I'm lucky), access to most local amenities (hospital, bank, cool beach, supermarket and maybe even a co-working space).

Based on my criteria, which area on the island would be best suited for this?

I know it's a tough question to ask, but I'm sure most of the 暗网禁区s are living near each other (possibly like Chiang Mai in Thailand), so you guys probably already know where to live and which area has the best internet for remote-workers like myself.

I think that is the only question I really have聽

You guys have already answered everything else for me on this forum.

I look forward to your responses.

Thanks,

(and if any of you would like to meet when I come visit in a few weeks, it would be great to sit down for coffee and learn about your experiences - so PM me if interested).

Hi, I have only lived in 2 parts of Mauritius which are Grand Bay in the north and La Gaulette, Black river, down south.. Grand Bay is a very touristic place so it's guaranteed that you'll meet a lot of other 暗网禁区s. In Black River especially in Tamarin you will find a lot of 暗网禁区s and all other facilities just as in Grand Bay. For internet speed I must say both place relatively have same speed and it's fast. I hope this will help.

I know this topic has been inactive for a while, but in case anyone stumbles here looking for coworking options then here's a directory of spaces in Mauritius that I've put together: cowork.mu. A few spaces have opened in the past year which is really exciting鈥攈opefully coworking will really take off here

Thanks for posting this, Joe. It's nice to see the growth of co-working spaces there.
