Off the coast of Africa, about 900 kilometers east of Madagascar, lies a small island with an area of only 787 square miles. The Star and Key of the Indian Ocean—Mauritius. Perhaps you’ve heard of it. It was once the home of the now extinct Dodo. It is also the home of different cultures, religions, and races. Although known for its beautiful beaches and pristine lagoons, the island offers much more than just aquatic wonders.
