From Cocagne, in the south of Bouillante, the Lanj Karayib team invites you to enjoy the underwater riches of the Cousteau Reserve without having to dive with a tank. All you need is a pair of fins, a mask and a snorkel, and you will be able to admire life beneath the surface for an hour of snorkelling at Îlet Christophe. With tropical fish (angelfish, boxfish, etc.), coral and even turtles for the lucky ones, there is no shortage of things to discover on this snorkelling trip!
This guided snorkelling excursion in Bouillante is led by a professional guide with a DEJEPS diploma (State Diploma in Youth, Popular Education and Sport), who will be delighted to show you the flora and fauna of the Caribbean Sea. Not only will he show you where to look underwater to make sure you don't miss anything, but he will also show you how to identify the species you see using an underwater tablet. You can be sure you will come away from the experience with a wealth of knowledge about Guadeloupe's underwater environment! Young (from the age of 8) and old alike will love this sea escapade next to the famous Cousteau Reserve, on the little-visited site of Îlet Christophe, which offers the ideal setting for snorkelling in Bouillante.
What's more, before heading out to the snorkelling site, the Lanj Karayib team suggests you visit the Bouillante hot baths for a relaxing dip. What better way to start the activity than with a moment of pure relaxation? So go ahead and discover the underwater world of Guadeloupe with fins, mask and snorkel at Bouillante with the Lanj Karayib diving centre!
