How long is the drive from the airport to Mont Choisy?
About 72 minutes off-peak: the M2 north past Port Louis, then the last easy kilometres along the coast road where Mont Choisy's long public beach — one of the north's loveliest — runs beside you under the casuarinas. The northern truth applies: weekdays between 7:30–9:30 AM and 4:30–6:30 PM, the Port Louis stretch adds 15–25 minutes, and we quote around real conditions. Late-night runs drop to about 60 minutes, with the 9 PM–5 AM surcharge disclosed in your quote before you book.
How much does the airport to Mont Choisy transfer cost?
€50 per vehicle for up to 3 passengers, from €70 for a minivan up to 6, all-inclusive — the same flat baseline as every route on the island, against a field scattering this run from €33 teasers to "premium" bands, and disagreeing with itself on the distance by eight kilometres while it's at it. One number, agreed on WhatsApp, identical at the kerb. Every route and vehicle option is on our main Mauritius airport transfer page.
Where exactly in Mont Choisy do you drop off?
Door to door across the crescent and its estate: the residences of Mont Choisy Le Golf — the north's 18-hole course, and the reason golf bags are regulars on this route (they ride free like any luggage) — plus the apart-hotels, beach residences and villas along Royal Road between the Trou aux Biches and Grand Baie borders. Your driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name board, an hour's waiting included, your flight tracked live: roughly 41% of arrivals into Mauritius land off their scheduled time.
My booking says Grand Baie — or Pointe aux Canonniers. Which transfer do I book?
The honest answer for this stretch of coast: it barely matters, and here's why. Mont Choisy, Pointe aux Canonniers and Grand Baie run into each other along two kilometres of Royal Road, and hotels on the borders use whichever address sounds best. Every one of them is the same fixed €50 and effectively the same drive — book any of the three transfers, send the property name, and the right car arrives at the right gate. If your accommodation names Mont Choisy or the Le Golf estate, you're on the right page; Grand Baie proper has its own transfer guide.
Can you take Uber from the airport to Mont Choisy?
Since 25 March 2026, Uber operates in Mauritius as "Taxi by ala-lila," booking licensed local taxis at standard local rates — usable for short hops around the northern towns once you're settled, but an airport pickup means hoping a standard car with no guaranteed child seats accepts a 66 km job at your landing moment. The full 2026 picture is in our guide to Uber in Mauritius.
The Barefoot Index: Mont Choisy route facts
Airport to Mont Choisy covers about 66 km in roughly 72 minutes off-peak, up to 90 through the weekday Port Louis rush and about 60 late at night.

Mont Choisy's public beach is among the longest in the north, its casuarina shade the classic Mauritian Sunday picnic scene; Mont Choisy Le Golf is the north's 18-hole course; and the crescent sits exactly between Trou aux Biches and Grand Baie — five minutes to either, which is the whole argument for staying here.

Worth knowing once you're in Mont Choisy
You're mid-crescent in the north's best geography: Grand Baie's restaurants five minutes one way, Trou aux Biches' family lagoon five the other, and the classic northern touring day — Port Louis' market, Pamplemousses' giant lilies, Cap Malheureux's red roof — mapped on our north of Mauritius tour.
