Mauritius 2

In May 2024, a few members of our dive club headed to the stunning coastal town of Flic en Flac in Mauritius for a two-week dive trip that combined underwater adventure with island exploration. Diving was conducted from a small hard boat, making each trip out to sea feel intimate and adventurous. While the waters off Mauritius are known for their vibrant marine life and coral reefs, we faced a few challenges: strong winds whipped up the waves on some days, forcing us to reschedule or cancel a few dives.

But those windy days gave us the perfect excuse to explore Mauritius beyond its shores! The island’s landscapes were truly breathtaking, with cascading waterfalls, volcanic peaks, and lush tropical forests. We visited serene botanical gardens, vibrant markets, and historical landmarks, finding hidden beaches and enjoying views that felt straight out of a postcard.

Despite the ups and downs with the weather, the trip left us with unforgettable experiences both underwater and on land, and we left Mauritius with a deep appreciation for its beauty and warm, welcoming culture. It was an unforgettable two weeks!
