The best eSIM for Mauritius in 2026. Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi and Ringo Light for Mauritius, priced on the same day: two weeks unlimited from $55, a month from $59.99, which to buy.
Prices read on 28 September 2026. Six travel eSIMs sell a Mauritius plan and get most of the traffic for this search. We priced all six on the same day, for a week at a beach hotel, two weeks round the island, and a month, and read the fine print on unlimited. Mauritius is an expensive country for data and an expensive one for us, and this page says plainly where a rival is the better buy.
Ringo Light: Unlimited with no daily speed cap, one payment, and the only plan that tops itself up. 2 weeks at $71.99 and 30 days at $139.99. In Mauritius we cost the most of the six: Ubigi sells 15 days with 30 GB at full speed for $55, $16.99 less, and Airalo 30 days of unlimited for $99, $40.99 less.
Ubigi: Cheapest two weeks, cheapest week and cheapest 10 GB. 15 days with 30 GB at full speed for $55, 7 days with 20 GB for $29, then 2 Mbps, and 10 GB for 30 days at $22. On Emtel and my.t.
Airalo: Cheapest 3 days and cheapest month of real unlimited. 3 days of unlimited at $24 and 30 days at $99, with 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps, on Emtel. It also sells 10 GB for 15 days at $21.
Saily: Cheapest month, on its Global plan. 30 days for $59.99 with 30 GB at full speed, then 1 Mbps. It is a Global plan, not a Mauritius one, and its listing is from June.

Most trips to Mauritius run ten days to two weeks: a beach hotel on the north or east coast, a day in Port Louis, a drive round the southwest to Chamarel and Le Morne, a boat to Île aux Cerfs. For about two weeks of unlimited, Ubigi asks $55 for 15 days with 30 GB at full speed, Airalo $68 and Holafly $70.50. Ringo Light asks $71.99 for 2 weeks, the most of the four. Saily and Nomad sell no Mauritius unlimited at all.
For a month the gap is wider. Saily's Global plan gives 30 GB at full speed for 30 days at $59.99, then 1 Mbps, though its listing is from June. Airalo sells 30 days of unlimited at $99, and Ubigi's Best World global plan 60 GB at full speed for $108. Holafly asks $139.90 and Ringo Light $139.99. If you are staying a month, Saily, Airalo or Ubigi is cheaper than us, Saily by $80. We would rather you read that here than at checkout.
Read what unlimited means before you pick. Airalo gives 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps. Ubigi and Saily's Global plan give a fixed amount, then slow you. Holafly states no daily cap for your own phone and limits sharing to 1 GB a day. Ringo Light has no speed cap: the 2 weeks starts with 10 GB and the 30 days with 20 GB, and when you have used 80% we add 10 GB once and charge the $71.99 top-up. A heavy two weeks with us costs $143.98 and a heavy month $211.98, more than any rival here. If you stream every day, Airalo's 3 GB a day or Ubigi's 30 GB for 15 days is the better deal.
For a short trip, Ringo Light sells no 3-day or 7-day plan. Airalo sells 3 days of unlimited at $24, and Ubigi a week with 20 GB at full speed for $29.
Mauritius has three mobile networks: my.t, run by Mauritius Telecom, Emtel, and the smaller MTML, sold as Chili. my.t and Emtel both cover the coast, the towns and the main roads well, with 4G nearly everywhere people stay. Airalo and Nomad ride Emtel, Holafly rides my.t, and Ubigi lists both.
Signal thins in the places people come for inland. Holafly's own page names parts of Black River Gorges National Park, the trails round Le Morne and some inland roads. Download offline maps of the island before you hike or drive the southwest, whichever eSIM you buy.
Ubigi, $22 for 10 GB. The cheapest 10 GB for 30 days, and 10 GB for 7 days at $19. On Emtel and my.t, installed by QR code.
Airalo, $21 for 10 GB over 15 days. The cheapest bucket for a two-week holiday, and 20 GB for 15 days at $36. Its 30-day buckets cost more: 10 GB $48, 20 GB $49.
Nomad, $29 for 10 GB. And the cheapest 20 GB for 30 days at $39, on Emtel.
Saily, $29.99 for 5 GB. Its largest Mauritius bucket. For 10 GB you need its Global plan at $44.99. Its listing is from June; saily.com would not load for us.
Ringo Light, no buckets. Our 2 weeks starts with 10 GB for $71.99 and our 30 days with 20 GB for $139.99. For a fixed amount of data, Ubigi, Airalo, Nomad and Saily are all cheaper in Mauritius, most by more than half. Buy Ringo Light for unlimited with no daily cap, not for a bucket.
Ringo Light is our own data eSIM, sold to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works everywhere with your own number ported onto it. For Mauritius it sells two trips, both unlimited data at full speed with no speed cap: 2 weeks at $71.99, starting with 10 GB, and 30 days at $139.99, starting with 20 GB. Each adds 10 GB once at 80%, charged at $71.99. One payment, nothing renews. The eSIM arrives by email in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.
In Mauritius it is not the cheapest. Our 2 weeks costs $16.99 more than Ubigi's 15 days and $3.99 more than Airalo's, and our month $80 more than Saily's Global plan and $40.99 more than Airalo's 30 days. Buy it if you want no daily speed cap and one payment; buy Ubigi or Airalo if you want the lowest price. None of our regional trips covers Mauritius, so there is no cheaper Ringo Light to point you to.

You need your own number to keep ringing. None of these travel plans does that. The full Ringo, which Ringo Light funds, ports the number you have.
What to do in Mauritius, and what your phone needs for it. Eight places most first trips include, from Port Louis and the northern beaches to the gorges, Chamarel and Le Morne in the southwest, with the one thing your data does for you at each. The coast and towns have good 4G; the forest and the mountain trails often do not.
Le Caudan Waterfront, Port Louis. Shops, cafés and the harbour on the edge of the capital, a short walk from the Central Market and its street food. Go in the morning, before the midday heat. The Metro Express light rail runs from Port Louis up to Curepipe. A maps app shows the stops and the next tram.
Grand Baie and La Cuvette beach, North coast. The busiest resort town on the island, with a calm lagoon, a small sheltered beach at La Cuvette and catamaran trips to the northern islets. Check a wind forecast before you book a catamaran: the trade winds decide how smooth the day is.
Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, Pamplemousses, north. The Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden, with ponds of giant water lilies, palms and old spice trees. Give it two hours. A plant app that names trees from a photo turns the walk into a free tour.
Île aux Cerfs, Off the east coast. A small island of white sand and shallow lagoon, reached by boat from Trou d'Eau Douce. Go early, before the day trips arrive. Save your boat booking and the return time offline: signal on the water comes and goes.
Grand Bassin, Savanne, in the hills. A crater lake sacred to Mauritian Hindus, ringed by temples, with a giant statue of Shiva at the entrance. Thousands walk here for Maha Shivaratri each year. It sits on the road between Curepipe and the Black River Gorges. A maps app plans both in one drive.
Black River Gorges National Park, Southwest. The island's largest park, native forest over deep valleys, seen from the Gorges viewpoint or walked on trails such as the Macchabée. The dry months, May to November, are best for hiking. Signal is weak on the trails. Save the park and your route offline before you set off.
Seven Coloured Earths, Chamarel. Dunes of red, brown and violet earth in a small geopark, with the tall Chamarel waterfall a few minutes away. The colours are strongest in the afternoon sun. The roads up to Chamarel wind through the hills and traffic drives on the left. Download the southwest in your maps app first.
Le Morne Brabant, Southwest peninsula. A basalt mountain above the lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the escaped slaves who hid on it. The hike to the viewpoint starts early to beat the heat. Coverage drops on the upper trail. Tell someone your plan and keep a downloaded map.
We priced Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi and Ringo Light for Mauritius on 28 September 2026, all on the same day, in US dollars. Each rival's price comes from its own website where it showed dollars, otherwise from an esimdb.com listing, and every source and its date is listed below. Ringo Light's prices come from the catalogue our checkout charges.
We compare the trips people actually book: a week, two weeks and a month of unlimited data, and a 10 GB bucket. We read each brand's fair use and speed rules and quote them as the brands state them. We did not run speed tests, so this page makes no speed claims for any brand.
Ringo Light is our own product. We put it in the table on the same terms as everyone else, and where a rival is the better buy the page says so.
Left out: Maya Mobile, we could not read its own prices for this country on the day, so it stays out rather than being guessed.

For two weeks of unlimited data, Ubigi at $55 for 15 days with 30 GB at full speed on 28 September 2026, then Airalo at $68. For a month, Saily's Global plan at $59.99 for 30 GB, then Airalo at $99. Ringo Light costs $71.99 for 2 weeks and $139.99 for 30 days, the most of the six. For 3 days, Airalo at $24. For 10 GB, Ubigi at $22 or Airalo at $21 for 15 days.
Airalo and Nomad ride Emtel, Holafly rides my.t, and Ubigi lists Emtel and my.t. Saily does not name its network on its listing. Both big networks cover the coast, Port Louis and the main hotels; signal thins in Black River Gorges and on the Le Morne trails.
Every brand has a limit somewhere. Airalo slows you after 3 GB a day, Ubigi after its fixed full-speed amount, and Saily's Global plan after 30 GB. Holafly states no daily cap for your own phone. Ringo Light has no speed cap: it starts with 10 or 20 GB and adds 10 GB once at 80%, charged.
Yes. my.t and Emtel both sell prepaid SIMs at the airport, and the SIM is registered to your passport when you buy it. A travel eSIM skips the counter: you install it at home and it works when you land, and you keep your own SIM in the phone.
