Mauritius

Hello All,

i plan to fly to Mauritius at the end of this year and wonder if anyone has information about a reputable dive center.
I would like to do some rebreather dives and a dive center who rents inspiration visions would be great as i am not sure if i shall take my own unit and if its worth the hassle.
I would mind some nice recommendations about good dive sites at all

Thanks in advance,

Mehdi-Saman

Will this trip have a specific purpose?
H*n*y*o*n?

hey,

was there for two weeks before,
stayed in the south of the island (heritage hotel),

some nice diving,
i never brough my rebreather however i wouldnt bother with the rebreather as far as i could see tis all recreational stuff there,
i dont think i even met someone who knew what a rebreather was,
maybe i was at the wrong end of the island though,

anyways hope this helps,

I just got back from Mauritius...was on West of island, didnt bother to take my CCR. Diving was ok...not a hell of a lot of fish life tho...and very much cattle boat diving.. nothing longer than 45 min dives otherwise boat isnt back in time for next round

Have fun

Steve

Wolfgang Clausen from Orca Diving in Hamata Red See moved to Mauritius. He dives a Evolution and has also a booster. I`m not sure if he rents rebreathers yet, but I`m sure that he can help for the rest. I dived a few Years in the diving in Hamata and he was always helpful on filling diluentgas, oxygen and for the sodasorb.

Possibly I will also be beginning December on Mauritius and I am thinking of taking my rebreather along.
Also are looking for a base which can support with O2 ... on the west side of the island.
Alredy know Orca from Safage and Hamata, they were very Rebreather supportive but Orca in Mauritius is situated in the north. Is there an alternative?

Cheers Peter

When i checked the internet, the only source i could find was:

- Dive Mauritius - learn to scuba dive in Mauritius

- Rebreather Diving Dräger Dolphin Mauritius Pereybère

@ Sailor,
hehe, you might be right, got to get taught scuba diving to my better half, that she is not angry that i want to go for diving....

CCR in Mauritius seems difficult!

Got in contact with Wolfgang at Orca and his PM was:

Sorry we can not supply you with O2 or any CO2 absorber (sofnolime Drägersorb or similar product), it is very difficult to obtain anything here...

So it's OC for me this time

Hi Saman,

May be good to post the link to my last trip report for everybody here:

Wreck Valley Divers :: View topic - Mauritius 2008

Dive Mauritius should have Inspi for rent. I will be again for 2 week in Mauritius after Christmas this year.
