Time in Mauritius
Shown above is the current time across Mauritius, alongside the time zone Mauritius keeps and the live local time in its main cities.
The whole of Mauritius runs on a single time, Mauritius time (UTC+4) — so every city listed on this page reads exactly the same clock.
Mauritius doesn't observe daylight saving at all — its offset from UTC stays fixed the entire year, so if the gap to another country ever changes, it's that other country moving its own clocks, not this one.
