Discover the beauty and tranquility of diving Mauritius
Tucked away like an emerald gem in the warmth of the Indian Ocean, Mauritius is a small East African country full of natural beauty. Those who know of this isolated island call it “heaven on earth,“ and for a good reason. Warm, crystal-clear water surrounds the lush, mountainous interior of Mauritius. Diving in Mauritius is unmatched. With coral reefs surrounding the entire island, there is no shortage of dive sites to explore. Shoals of colorful fish swim amongst the healthy reef while sharks like bulls, grey, and whitetips patrol around the open blue. After a fantastic morning of diving in Mauritius, you can explore the waterfall-filled jungles or bask in the sun on a secluded white sand beach. Come find peace and tranquility on the island of Mauritius today!

Discover the world’s most fascinating aquatic life
Aquatic life under our oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams is amazing! From microscopic zooplankton to the largest animal on earth, the blue whale, underwater life comes in all possible shapes and sizes. With 71% of the earth being covered with water, it is no wonder we are so fascinated with what lies beneath the surface. In fact, scientists estimate that there are nearly 1 million different species of aquatic animals. Freshwater ecosystems are home mainly to fish, invertebrates, and reptiles, whereas the ocean contains a wide array of marine life including fish, mollusks, crustaceans, reptiles, sharks, and marine mammals like whales, dolphins, seals, and manatees.
