This dive site, Pereybere, is situated a few kilometers north of Grand Baie on the famous island of Mauritius. Easily accessible directly from the shore, it offers a gentle introduction to diving and snorkeling, guiding enthusiasts to two distinct reef areas just past the initial drop-off. Its reputation as a highly visited public beach ensures straightforward navigation and a relaxed underwater experience ideal for all levels.
The reefs and lagoon here teem with a vast array of vibrant hard and soft corals, providing a stunning backdrop for countless colorful reef fish. Divers and snorkelers can expect to encounter diverse marine life, and with a bit of luck, spot one of the many sea turtles known to frequent this rich and accessible ecosystem.
The best time to visit Pereybere for optimal conditions is generally during Mauritius' dry season, from May to December, when water clarity tends to be at its peak. This site is highly recommended for beginners, snorkelers, and freedivers seeking an easy and rewarding encounter with tropical marine life without needing boat access.
