Mauritius will reveal itself to you under a new angle if you go on adventure underwater!

For experienced divers as well as for beginners, the agencies that organise this kind of excursions offer a wide range of prices depending on what you want.

The tour begins at the Blue Bay Park, which stretches over 353 hectares, where you can see corals of all shapes and colours! Then head towards the famous island of Aigrettes where you can try to climb up a few sea urchins that will be possible to taste with a bottle of wine later.
