Mauritius
The island is ringed by reef and the entrances are narrow and difficult in a swell. Port Louis and Grand Baie are the options. From November to April there is cyclone risk; the island is regularly brushed or hit. Outside that time the south east trade gives reliable wind.

Berths, season and winter storage
The safe time is May to September with berths in the middle price band. Sheltered places for the cyclone season are scarce. Yard options exist but are limited; spare parts arrive by air freight and are subject to duty.
What this means for your policy
Mauritius belongs to the Indian Ocean cruising range. The central question is the cyclone exclusion and the date from which your policy no longer covers a stay in the zone. Settle that before you fix the schedule.
