Walk on the ocean floor and get up close with tropical fish and coral
Walk on the ocean floor and get up close with tropical fish and coral in this unique underwater experience. Using a special helmet supplied with air, you walk on the seabed in shallow, clear water—no swimming or diving certification needed. The activity is available at selected sites on the north coast, often near Grand Bay or Trou aux Biches. Fish swarm around you as you walk, and the experience is suitable for most ages and fitness levels. Undersea walk is one of Mauritius's unique marine activities—a gentle way to experience the underwater world without scuba gear, and a great option for non-swimmers who want to see the sea life.
