BLUE SAFARI

This company specializes in unique and/or exclusive (i.e. privatized and upmarket) sea excursions.

Well-known in Mauritius for its submarine excursions, it is the only company in the Indian Ocean - and one of the very few in the world - to market this extraordinary atypical activity, offering the opportunity to realize a Jules Verne fantasy! Duration of the expedition: just over an hour, not including the 15-minute boat ride to a large trawler from which the captain and crew help future passengers into the boat: a 10-person submarine with one porthole per participant. Then begins the incredible 40-minute dive out of this world, the sensations of which we won't reveal, to leave everyone the pleasure of discovery. Three sites are usually visited at depths of over 30 meters: a coral mass rich in fish, an authentic wreck as in our explorers' dreams, and a mercy anchor probably dating from the ^17th century. A magical experience!

Another unique activity in the world, invented by Blue Safari, which has exclusive rights to it: the underwater scooter. Although original, the concept is simple: an aquatic scooter covered by a large, transparent, panoramic dome under which you can breathe freely without a passenger. Steering is via a simple steering wheel and accelerator pedal. The machines, certified by safety classification societies, can each accommodate 2 people seated one behind the other, for rides in groups of 5 scooters under the watchful eye of 2 diver-accompanist guides. As with our submarine excursions, the activity begins with a boat transfer to the operating barge from which the immersion takes place. The depth is less than 3 metres, which is more than enough to see fish in Mauritius, especially as the experience of the scooter itself and the wildly unprecedented nature of the machine are just as attractive as the marine beauties!

More classically, but with the same concern for quality and service, Blue Safari also offers exclusive, fully à la carte outings (quotations on request) by motorboat or monohull for up to 6 people (ideally 2 or 4 on the sailboat). The company also has a superb catamaran that can be privatized for up to 22 people - day, sunset, dinner and even overnight stay(s) on request for a few people (4 fully-equipped cabins, skipper, cook).
