Discover the beauty of the Indian Ocean fauna and flora.

Diving is pleasant as it takes place in crystal-clear, warm water ( 24 to 30 degrees °C ) with little current.

Several diving sites are available along the coast. Each is open to all, from beginner to experienced diver ( depth: 0 to 215 feet ).

We enjoy an exceptional site: the Vailheu Bank, a deep-sea coral reef where pelagic fish roam.

Another exceptional dive is the wreck of the “Massiwa”, a 260-foot cargo ship located north of the island. The dive is carried out fully inside the wreck.

Services offered :

First dive, 1st, 2nd and 3rd level training, Nitrox training, rebreather diving, deep, night and wreck diving
