Hello,

Since I will be staying a month in Mauritius I will definitely need some internet connection. Is it easy to get a mobile sim card with internet access? Is the connection speed good? Are there any carriers that would recommend?

Thanks a lot to the community!

Best,
Gordon

It isn't possible to walk into any old shop and pick up a sim card though. You will have to go to an Orange / Emtel shop and show them your passport. They log it against the sim card for some reason.
