The best time to visit Mauritius in order to enjoy the hot weather is from the end of November through to early March. However, these months (except November) coincide with the wet season in Mauritius. So the weather in Mauritius, particularly from December to February is very humid as well. The best location to stay at on Mauritius during these months is on the western and north western side since these regions record far less rain than the southern, eastern and inland areas. The reason for this is that the mountains over the centre part of the island block the progression of north westward moving rain bearing clouds during the summer months. The clouds move in this direction since the trade winds blow in from the south east. Furthermore, the highest daytime temperatures also occur in the same location as lowest rainfall (i.e. the western and north western side) since the mountains shelter these areas from the cooler trade winds. The western and north western side of Mauritius typically record maximum temperatures between 30-32°C. There might be at least 2-3 days when when the temperature rises to 34°C but this is uncommon since there's no place on Mauritius that's more than 35 kilometres from the ocean. The ocean air modifies helps to prevent the daytime maximum temperatures from rising too high.

What is the weather like in mauritius in late December?

The weather in Mauritius at the end of December is quite hot and humid with frequent afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Normally the wet season begins in Mauritius by the end of the second week of December but there is much year-to-year variability. The far eastern coastal region as well as the inland mountainous areas of Mauritius tend record the most rain at the end of December followed by the southern coastal fringe. These areas are exposed to the moist south easterly trade winds and as such are the first places that record rain if a cloud moves in from the south east off the ocean. The western side of Mauritius typically records most of its rain due to surface convection and its interaction with the sea breeze. The temperatures at night normally drop down to about 21-22°C and rise to maximum temperature of between 29-30°C during this time. On most days it's likely that there will be a sea breeze and so it can get windy over most coastal areas on the eastern and southern sides of Mauritius during the afternoon. The south easterly trade winds are not normally strong at the end of December since high pressure systems that initiate their formation are quite weak during the summer months.
