Excursion 2: Mauritius Tandem Skydiving OR Parasailing
You can choose to opt for either the Mauritius Tandem Skydiving for an adrenaline pumping adventure, or the Parasailing for a lightweight, free-flying feeling.
Option 1:Mauritius Tandem Skydiving
There is nothing like skydiving for sheer heart-stopping adrenaline and adventure, and there is no place like Mauritius to do it. The island’s magnificent landscapes take on an extra dimension when you’re 10,000 feet (3,048 metres) in the air. This is a unique heart-throbbing way to enjoy Mauritius' scenery above lush nature with a view on the turquoise ocean and golden beaches.
The Mauritius Tandem Skydiving includes:
- Ground training
- Plane tour above the region
- Free fall from 10,000 feet
- Parachute flight
What to expect?
The take-off is from the magnificent Sugar Fields of Mon Loisir with the views of Mauritius’ stunning lagoons and reefs stretching far into the Indian Ocean.
The flight before the jump offers a complete 360 degrees bird’s eye view of Mauritius' awesome coastal, inland and mountain sceneries. During the flight you will be safely harnessed to your experienced and qualified instructor. Once you reach 10,000 feet above ground, both of you will slide to the open door. Your instructor will remind you of the basic guidelines to bear in mind.
Once positioned correctly, both of you will jump. The amazing yet intricate feeling of free fall boosted by a high dose of adrenaline rush is a lifetime memory, especially when you are freefalling at a speed of about 200 Km/hour for about one or two minutes.
Once you are approximately at 5,000 feet above ground, the instructor will open the parachute and you will smoothly begin to glide and descend for about 5 minutes while enjoying the beautiful surrounding until the flawless landing. Your instructor will equally make some wondrous swirls in the descent to offer you a 360 degrees bird’s view of the scenery. At the end you will receive a Tandem Skydiving Certificate to remember this lifetime experience.
What is Tandem Skydiving?
Tandem Skydiving refers to a type of skydiving that is a very popular training method for first time skydivers. The student skydiver is connected via a harness to a tandem instructor, who guides the student from exit through freefall piloting the canopy and landing. The student needs only minimal training before making a tandem jump.
Before the jump the student is trained on how to exit the aircraft, do maneuvers in freefall and deploy the main canopy. However, the instructor remains primarily responsible for safe and timely parachute deployment.
Modern parachute equipment is very reliable and instances of malfunctions are rare. In the unlikely event of a fault with the main parachute, the system is fitted with a back-up reserve parachute to guarantee maximum safety.
Option 2: Parasailing
Parasailing offers you a breathtaking bird's eye view of the beautiful lagoon and beaches of Mauritius, making it one of the best things to do during your vacation on the island.
What to expect?
The parasailing begins with a short safety briefing. Then you will be taken by boat to the launch pod where you will later take off and start the parasailing.
Upon arrival to the launch pod you will be connected with a secured certified harness to the parasail. Only after the ground assistants have checked the rig and the flight harness, they will signal the boat driver to start the engine and gradually accelerate the boat. You will slowly take off from the launch pod for a flight above the beautiful lagoon. No steering is actually necessary as the sail follows the course of the boat.
Optionally you can add to your already amazing experience a "touch and go" fun. On the way down, instead of just reeling back onto the boat, you will fly for a while above the ocean and then be lowered down for a dip in the sea before going up again while enjoying a very refreshing plunge.
What is Parasailing?
Parasailing, also known as parascending, is an activity where a person is attached to a specially designed parachute (parasail) and towed behind a boat. The boat drives off carrying the parascender into the air.
Excursion 3: Underwater Seawalk
Experience the ultimate sensation where time stops, worries fade away and breathing underwater becomes possible, safe and easy. The closest experience to a moon-walk!
The Underwater Sea Walk is a true once in a lifetime experience for all the non-divers out there. You can now enjoy a safe and fascinating 3-4 meter underwater walk on the ocean bed and witness firsthand the magnificent marine life of Mauritius. Walk around the beautiful fauna, corals and a wide variety of fish - all in their natural habitat.
What to expect?
The excursion begins with a motorboat transfer from the center of Grand Baie to a platform situated inside the lagoon at the North of Mauritius. Upon arrival at the platform you will receive a pre departure briefing on safety procedures, the gear, the local marine life and the underwater walking trail.
Then, with the help of the qualified and experienced guides you will go off the platform and straight onto your underwater walk adventure. The guides will accompany you along the course of the Underwater Seawalk guaranteeing maximum safety.
How is Underwater Seawalk possible?
You will be asked to wear a helmet with a transparent visor. A special apparatus allows normal breathing under the water. Lifeguards will take you underwater and accompany you throughout the walk to guarantee maximum safety. The Underwater Sea Walk does not require any knowledge of swimming or diving and you are not even required to remove your glasses.

- Towels
- Swimming suit
