Dive-site story
Caravelle sits off the northern coast of Mauritius, featuring a rocky reef plateau that gives way to dramatic basalt boulders, coral formations, and sand channels. Pelagic fish patrol the deeper fringes while honeycomb morays and triggerfish claim crevices across the volcanic reef structure.
Schooling barracuda drifting across open water off the outer reef wall
Large basalt coral heads harbouring cleaning stations and hidden crustaceans
Resting rays and garden eels scattered across the bottom sand patches

Seasonality
