Full Description

The First Undersea Walk Experience with Solar-Powered Equipment in the World!

The Solar Sea Walk is the world’s first ever undersea walk that uses solar energy—and it’s not related to scuba diving.
After a safety briefing, you'll descend 3-4 metres beneath the surface to explore the abundant marine life within the reef, walking across the ocean floor.
With an underwater guide and two surface divers ensuring your safety, you can enjoy meeting and feeding a variety of fish while walking among them in the warm Indian Ocean waters.

You’ll be guided every step of the way, provided with plastic shoes for comfort, and equipped with a pioneering square helmet connected to solar-powered compressors for a steady oxygen supply

If you do not wish to undertake the activity but simply want to accompany your loved one who is diving, you can choose to stay onboard and enjoy the boat ride (subject to extra cost). The sea surrounding Mauritius is already a very nice view to behold and you will enjoy the sea trip.

More about the Solar Sea Walk in Grand Baie 
 

  • Roomy Helmet Design: The undersea walk activity features a roomy helmet design that lets users wear their glasses.  
  • Kids-Friendly: Designed for all ages from 7 years old 
  • Non-Swimmers Welcome: The excursion doesn’t require swimming skills—just the ability to walk.  
  • Free Flow Air: Unlike scuba diving, where a regulator mouthpiece supplies air, the solar undersea walk system offers a continuous flow of fresh air, leaving your head completely unobstructed.

Ecotourism

The Solar Sea Walk team offers Mauritius's first truly eco-friendly underwater adventure. By eliminating petrol and using electric compressors powered entirely by solar energy, this unique experience delivers 100% pure air through distortion-free helmets. 

The compressors are designed without lubrication, ensuring no micro fumes contaminate the air, making it a truly green and innovative choice for exploring the ocean depths.

About Solar Sea Walk

In 1988, the Solar Sea Walk team introduced helmet diving, a groundbreaking innovation both in Mauritius and worldwide. This pioneering effort required custom equipment and years of refinement to perfect. By 1999, they further transformed the industry by launching the world’s first fully solar-powered helmet diving experience.
