The Seven Coloured Earths are a geological formation and prominent tourist attraction found in the Chamarel plain of the Rivière Noire District in south-western Mauritius. It is a relatively small area of sand dunes comprising sand of seven distinct colours (approximately red, brown, violet, green, blue, purple and yellow). The main feature of the place is that since these differently coloured sands spontaneously settle in different layers, dunes acquire a surrealistic, striped colouring. Since the earth was first exposed, rains have carved beautiful patterns into the hillside, creating an effect of earthen meringue

"Our stay was everyone expected from the various reviews. Would definitely recommend it."

"It might be the best location on the island. The apartment was spacious and the service superb. Some details like the showers needed some maintenance, but who cares? Good restaurants in between walking distance, one even just down a beach walk. "

"Ich habe mir bei der Unterkunft etwas ganz anderes vorgestellt als wir bekommen haben.. 1. Es wird als 4* Apartment verkauft was es definitiv nicht ist. 2. Man kommt rein und es kommt einem ein alter, modriger Geruch entgegen was sicher nicht einladend ist. 3. Die Möbel sind auch in die Jahre gekommen. 4.
