Hi,
We are a family of 4 (two sons aged 18 and 15) looking to relocate to Mauritius from SA. Will appreciate any and all help with advice on where to live, schooling for our 15 year old son and any other info regarding moving to the island. Business opportunities if any? please feel free to send me any info that will help us.
thanks
Shani

In which field of activity / expertise are you Shani? This would help members input on business opportunities.

With regards to schooling, you'd probably be looking at private schools (Le Bocage, IPS, Paul & Virginie, etc.) They all have their websites, so you can google them up and get an idea of their offers.

Where to live is quite a vaste question. I'll tend to think that you would want to be near the schools. Fortunately, most of them are located near expat-concentrated regions (Tamarin, Black River, Grand Bay, Moka, etc.)
