Scuba diving has always been a very popular pastime
for tourists. Nothing gets the adrenaline pumping like the rush of
swimming with schools of fish streaming by your side as you take in
the beauty of vibrant coral reefs and the marine life of Mauritius.
Scuba divers in Mauritius are spoilt for choice of dive sites. There
are numerous dive sites strewn all over the island. Beginners can
start at the shallow side of the ocean whereas experienced divers
can head straight for the more adventurous dive sites such as cliffs,
caverns, reefs, pinnacles and wrecks. One of the well-known and popular
dive sites in Mauritius is the Cathedral that is located off the Flic
en Flac on the western coast of Mauritius. Other dive sites in Mauritius
include the Whale Rock and Roche Zozo that is an underwater rock pinnacle
and the submerged crater near Ile Ronde. |
