Diving Information

The west coast of Mauritius is a region with a variety of interesting dive spots, with water temperatures ranging from 22° Celsius in winter (5mm wetsuit) to 28° Celsius in summer (3mm wetsuit). Average visibility: 20 to 25 meters. There is no typical "diving season". Beautiful conditions exist all year round but the visibility can, of course, be affected by waves, plankton, tides or rain.

The Dive Spots

Pointe Aux Biches (5 to 12m): A very attractive small reef with a big variety of soft and hard coral and an abundance of tropical fish. The ideal spot for beginners and for experienced divers interested in macro photography.

Holts Rock (21m): The dominant landscape feature of Holts Rock is the presence of huge basalt rock of volcanic origin some larger than an average-sized Mauritian house.

Stenopous Reef (28-38m): It is a very picturesque dive site containing many interesting features, such as tubastrea corals of more that 2m in height. There are large fan corals which decorate the walls of a drop off, and a wide variety of soft corals. Another interesting aspect of the dive is that, while it has a large number and a wide variety of tropical fish, many pelagic fish species can also be seen there because of the site's exposure to the deep waters of the open sea. Kingfish, wahoo, stingrays, white tip sharks and tuna are frequent visitors of the dive site.

Water Lilly and Emily (wrecks) (23-26m): These two barges where scuttled to make artificial reefs and lie about 30m from each other. The marine growth on the wrecks is moderate but a wide variety of fish can be seen. These include Moorish idols, powder blue surgeonfish, kingfish and shoals of fusiliers. A number of eels have also made their home in the different corners of the wreck.

Scorpion fish and stonefish can be seen on most of the dives. This Japanese trawler was purposely sunk in 1987 by the Mauritius Marine Conservation Society. The marine growth on the wreck is moderate. The real attraction of this dive lies firstly, in the spectacular sight of a ship lying, still virtually intact, on the floor.
