Did you know...
The country of Mauritius includes the islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues as well as a number of outer islands. Mauritius has a rich history linked to various cultures including the French, Portuguese, Dutch, Arabs and British and the island's capital city of Port Louis was established in 1736 by the French East India Company. Mauritius is the only African country to have a Hindu majority.
We are Mauritius scuba diving holiday experts, with extensive knowledge of the very best diving areas and luxury resorts. There is very limited reliable information on scuba diving in Mauritius, and what is found on the internet can be very conflicting. Our staff here travel to Mauritius regularly, and we have been to all the best properties, and dived extensively around the island.
It is always best to call and speak to a Mauritius dive travel expert, but in summary, we can say that the best diving is in the North Western part of the island. Here the seas are generally calmer as they are protected from the normal South Easterly winds, and there is a good mixture of wrecks, as well has some good drop offs on the very Northern off shore islands. Mauritius is best of a luxury learn to dive holiday, and is also excellent for a luxury family diving holiday or honeymoon.
All the diving in Mauritius is by boat, with very few 'house reefs' to speak of. You can stay in any of the hand picked properties we offer and our partner dive schools will collect you from your hotel (if the dive centre is not onsite), sometimes with a small fee. If you want to mix the wreck dives with the offshore islands this is also easily arranged locally with your diving school; it is around 30-40 minutes drive between the two different areas.
We only work with the very best PADI Scuba Diving centres in Mauritius, so you can be sure of the best service, safety standards and equipment. There are many dive schools around this region but only very few that offer a high level of service using purpose-built dive boats (as opposed to small converted fishing boats).
