About Mauritius
Mauritius is a fascinating, world-in-one-island slice of paradise. It’s very name of conjures up
images of tropical luxury and stupendous extravagance. While in many destinations famed for
cobalt-blue seas, white sandy beaches and luxury hotels, you may eventually find yourself
wishing for something to do besides sunbathing and swimming, it’s often hard to know what to
do next in Mauritius. The island is loaded with historic sites, cultural diversity, geographic
variation and almost limitless activities to distract you from the daily grind of beach and pool. But
perhaps its single biggest asset is the relaxed charm of its warm and welcoming people.
Climate & When to Go
Mauritius enjoys a typically tropical climate with year-round heat, although the southeast trade
winds help it never to feel too muggy. The summer months are from December to April, when it
can nevertheless be extremely humid, and the winter, such as it is, runs from May to November,
and is cooler and drier.
The best months to visit Mauritius are May to early December. January and February, the peak
cyclone months, are best avoided by water-sports enthusiasts and divers. Cyclones rarely hit
Mauritius (although Rodrigues has suffered far more regularly than the mainland) but cyclones
way out at sea can bring days of squally rain.
Coastal temperatures range between 25°C and 33°C in summer and between 18°C and 24°C in
winter. On the plateau it will be some 5°C cooler. The highlands are also the wettest part of the
island – it can rain here at any time of year, and even when it’s not raining the area can be
cloaked in low-lying cloud.
When the winds are at their strongest in July and August it can be blustery on the east coast,
though the breeze brings welcome relief in summer.
Apart from the Christmas-New Year peak, Mauritius doesn’t really have high and low seasons.
The situation is more dependent on outside factors (such as the French school holidays, which
cause a big increase in demand and prices in August).
Money
The Mauritian unit of currency is the rupee (Rs), which is divided into 100 cents. There are coins
of 5, 20 and 50 cents, and Rs 1, Rs 5 and Rs 10. The banknote denominations are Rs 25, Rs
50, Rs 100, Rs 200, Rs 500, Rs 1000 and Rs 2000.

Pattaya - City of Angels (Pattaya Tourism)
Pattaya (Thai: พัทยา, พัทยา (help·info), RTGS: Phatthaya, Thai pronunciation: [pʰát.tʰā.jāː]) is
a city in Thailand, a beach resort popular with tourists and expatriates. It is
located on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, about 165 km southeast of
Bangkok within but not part of Amphoe Bang Lamung (Banglamung) in the province
of Chonburi.

Mueang Phatthaya) is a self-governing municipal area which covers the whole
tambon Nong Prue and Na Kluea and parts of Huai Yai and Nong Pla Lai. The City

Racha, Laem Chabang, and Chonburi. It has a population exceeding 100,000

The name Pattaya
evolved from the march of Phraya Tak (later King Taksin) and his army from
Ayutthaya to Chanthaburi, which took place before the fall of the former
capital to the Burmese invaders in 1767.
When his army arrived
at the vicinity of what is now Pattaya, Phraya Tak encountered the troops of a
local leader named Nai Klom, who tried to intercept him. When the two met face
to face, Nai Klom was impressed by Phraya Tak's dignified manner and his army's
strict discipline. He surrendered without a fight and joined his forces. The
place the armies confronted each other was thereafter known as 'Thap Phraya',
which means the Army of the Phraya. This later became Phatthaya, the name of
the wind blowing from the southwest to the northeast at the beginning of the
rainy season. Today the city is known internationally as "Pattaya,"
though the official transliteration is still "Phatthaya."
Pattaya remained a
small fishing village until the 1960s. Then American servicemen during the
Vietnam War began arriving in Pattaya for rest and relaxation. Pattaya
developed into a popular beach resort; now greatly expanded, it attracts over 4
million visitors a year.[2][3] Fishermen's huts along the beach were replaced
by resort hotels and retail stores, including Asia's largest beachfront
shopping mall,[4] the CentralFestival Pattaya Beach Mall and hotel (Hilton)
situated on Beach Rd in central Pattaya.

Local culture:
Within twenty years,
Pattaya has been transformed from a sleepy fishing community into an
international resort often referred to as the 'Thai Riviera'. Pattaya is
literally a place where East meets West , both in colour and character, and is
probably the most cosmopolitan place inThailand after Bangkok Major Beaches and
Some 4 kilometres
long, this beach faces Pattaya Bay, the major venue from where boats visit
Pattaya's offshore islands. The beach curves fromnorth to south and is largely
paralleled by a treelined promenade and beach road which is lined, in the
northern and central parts, by hotels and restaurants. The northern section of
the beach is largely tranquil, while the central and southern parts become
increasingly lively, thanks to a position of shops, department stores,
boutiques, beauty salons, supermarkets, bars, discotheques, restaurants and
nightclubs. The central area of the beach is a major shopping area, while the
southern end is one of Pattaya's major nightlife areas.
Jomtien Beach
This 6-kilometre long,
largely straight beach, some 4 kilometres south of Pattaya, is the most notable
of several beaches south of the resort. The beach is popular with windsurfers
and watersports enthusiasts, largely because the area enjoys brisk and fresh
breezes sweeping island from the Thai Gulf, and because the seas are less
congested with boats than is Pattaya Bay. Jomtien is also a major residential
area with beachside hotels, bungalow complexes, condominiums and restaurants.
