There's a good selection of entertainment available in . There are two major cinemas, Star and Cinemaxx. The former is situated along the while the latter on Port Louis Waterfront.

Theatre lovers can pop in to the Municipal Theatre which holds various plays and musical events.

Company Gardens has some wonderfully large banyan trees and is worth a visit – just do not be there past sunset as it transforms into a seedy red light district. It's also ill advised for single ladies to be in this area by themselves.

is a good example of a harmonious multi national society. There are some notable churches and Cathedrals to be seen – St Louis Cathedral and St James Cathedral are well worth a visit.

Some of the most breathtaking views of the city can be seen from the Citadel (Fort Adelaide).

Getting around Port Louis is best done by taxi. It's not especially expensive to hire taxi's, and it is a far better option than trying to drive yourself within the city (the traffic can be intense, and the driving of the Mauritius public isn't exactly world class).
