Jump into Mauritius' beautiful waters and observe its diverse underwater world on this amazing snorkelling excursion around Tamarin Bay! Located on the southwestern side of Mauritius, the village of Tamarin is more of a local treasure than a big tourist spot. However, this doesn't mean that it is not an unmissable spot when visiting Mauritius. With a relaxed and authentic atmosphere, the place is perfect to explore the incredible Tamarin Bay and lounge on the beach or, if you're feeling more adventurous, do some bodyboarding, stand-up paddling, dolphin-watching, or, of course, snorkelling.
On the day of your guided snorkelling tour in Tamarin Bay, you'll need to arrive at the Tamarin Oceanpro Diving headquarters on Tamarin Beach. There, you'll meet your friendly instructor, who will check you in and distribute the necessary equipment for the excursion, including the mask, tube, and fins. Then, it's time for a short safety and itinerary briefing, so you are aware of where you're going and what to do to have a good time.
Once you're all geared up and ready to go, it's time to hop on the boat! Depending on the day's weather and tide conditions, your instructor will choose a good spot to anchor the boat and let you jump into the water. Now, for about 45 minutes to an hour, you will follow an instructor around the water and toward the best places to observe the inhabitants of Tamarind Bay with your snorkel equipment. During your experience, you might spot colourful fish, corals, moray eels, and turtles. Now, your instructor is passionate about the preservation of the ocean, so they will ask you to please not touch anything during the tour.
All you need to do to enjoy this wonderful 2-hour snorkelling excursion around Tamarind Bay is come prepared with the basics. A swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and a water bottle are really all you'll need, keeping in mind that there will be no lockers where you can leave more valuable possessions that you don't wish to get wet. The water temperature in the bay varies between 22 and 29 degrees Celsius, so you shouldn't worry about the cold, but your instructor includes wetsuits in the equipment for the experience, and it is up to you if you wear them or not.
Take your chance to explore the wonderful underwater world of western Mauritius with an expert by your side to show you all the best sights. Book your guided snorkelling excursion around Tamarin Bay today!
