All passengers will undergo a temperature check by means of a thermal camera on arrival in SSR Airport.
Wearing a face mask and regular sanitising of hands is mandatory.
What is required in order to return to South Africa?
A PCR test will need to be administered in Mauritius as South Africa’s Department of Health requires each passenger aged 5 years and older present a negative PCR test result on arrival in Johannesburg (specimen collected within 72 hours of departure from Mauritius). For more information click here.
All passengers will also be required to present this negative PCR test result at check in for their return flight when departing from Mauritius. Passengers who are not able to produce a negative PCR test at time of check in will be off loaded from the flight and won’t be permitted to fly.
Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels has a contract in place with C-Lab and a staff member will travel to the resort to collect the specimens for testing. Each test costs MUR1,800 and is for the client’s account; please request that Guest Relations book your appointment for this test shortly after you arrive at the resort.
The South African authorities require a form to be completed per passenger ahead of their arrival back in South Africa: “Traveller health questionnaire: entry screening to South Africa (International travel)” – download it here
Getting to your hotel, and back to the airport:
If you have booked transfers as part of your Beachcomber package, a Mautourco representative will guide you from the arrivals’ hall to the designated transfer vehicle. Please ensure your mask is worn correctly at all times during your transfers.
On arrival at the hotel & during your stay:
On arrival at your resort (day 0) all clients will undergo an antigen test. When a negative test result is received, guests are free to enjoy the facilities of the resort and venture out to explore the island.
If an individual receives a positive test result, please view the FAQ page here for the procedures that will be followed.
Guests are required to undergo another antigen test on day 5. The cost of both antigen tests will be borne by the Beachcomber group.
Mauritian law states that hotel guests may remove their mask when on the beach, at the pool or when seated at a restaurant table or in the bar. In all other scenarios, please wear your mask. For more information – including protocols surrounding masks for younger children – please click here
