Mauritius competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, from 13 to 29 August 2004.

A total of nine athletes, six men and three women, competed only five different sports.

Boxer Michael Medor was the nation's flag bearer in the opening ceremony.

Sprinter Stephane Buckland set the nation's historical milestone as the first Mauritian athlete to reach an Olympic final with a prospect of bringing home a medal for the team, but managed only to finish strongly in sixth place.
