Some divers say there is nothing like the freedom of movement and weightlessness felt underwater. They say that hearing nothing but the sound of your own breathing while observing the fascinating marine life around you changes your life forever. This wonderful experience is enhanced by the clear waters of the Indian Ocean.

Unlike the reefs in Seychelles and the Maldives, the coral reefs in Mauritius have not been bleached or affected by the warming of the ocean. The crystal-clear water, the abundance of fish life and colorful reefs provide magnificent backdrops for underwater filming and photography.

Mauritius, almost completely encircled by a barrier coral reef, is home to many sponges, sea anemones and a variety of colorful fish. These wonderful sea creatures and vegetation provide incredible scenery for all divers.

The open sea dive will take place under the direct careful supervision of a PADI Professional, so you can freely enjoy your diving experience, without any worries.
