Activity description
Do you have at least Level 1 or Open Water certification in scuba diving? Don't miss the chance to take part in a supervised or autonomous exploration dive in the Cousteau Reserve!
Under the supervision of a dive master, or in total autonomy if you have at least Level 2 certification, exploration diving in the Cousteau Reserve is an experience that no certified diver in Guadeloupe should miss! A protected marine area stretching from Pointe Mahaut (south of Pointe-Noire) to Pointe Lézarde (south of Bouillante) and including the îlets Pigeon, the Cousteau Reserve is home to numerous underwater species, as well as some incredible wrecks to discover.
On exploration dives in the Cousteau Reserve, you will be able to venture out to a wide variety of sites, selected by the dive master according to the sea and weather conditions of the day, your level and, if possible, your desires! Around the îlets Pigeon, turquoise water sites await you (the "Pool", the "Coral Garden", the "Aquarium", etc.), as well as wrecks scattered a little further around (the Gustavia, the Franjack, etc.), as well as coral plateaus, drifts and many other types of dive sites along the Bouillante coast.
Get ready to encounter an exceptionally rich fauna and flora during your exploration dive in the Cousteau Reserve from the training centre located in Bouillante, near Malendure beach!
