Excellent First Scuba Dive - We chose Ocean Spirit for our first experience of scuba diving (the Discover Scuba Diving course). We could not have picked a better dive centre. Our instructor, Bobby was patient, a very good teacher, and really took care of us. The course was provided in English, the communication was excellent. My wife was really nervous beforehand, but with Bobby’s support, was able to complete the dive, which we both really enjoyed. I would highly Ocean Spirit for someone looking to do experience their first scuba dive.

Remarkable and Brilliant - If you like your diving very laid back, this is the place! Laid back briefings, laid back boat protocols, laid back owners and DM's and very laid back diving itself. Did a 10 dive package between 9-13 April and while 3 of the dives were a bit underwhelming and remarkable (Carpenters and The Wall/Three Caves, Shamenta/Turtle Rock), there were two great wreck dives (Stella Maru and KT Mawar) and another 5 I would rank in my best 40-50 dives ever, including the Red Sea, Hawaii and the Mozambique Islands. Oasis (more Moray eels and stone-fish than I have ever seen on any dive, plus a Goblin fish and several different nudibranches). The Reef (parrots, anemone clown fish, neon purple trigger fish, Humbugs, Titan Triggerfish, Blue Petes and eel catfish by the score). Pointe Vacuos (Rinopius, juvenile angelfish, weedy scorpion fish (?) Ti Coral (scores of Lion fish, ribbon eels, Frogfish, Octopus, cleaner wrasse to clean your ears!) and Merville Patches (eels, stone fish, giant barracuda, octopus, juvenile angelfish, turtle etc) All reefs brilliant for hard and soft corals and the sea life, including all the pretty little things. Planning to go back in September. Not to be missed by the serious and recreational diver. Highly recommended. Kevin Graham

Good diving experience at Océan Spirit in Pereybere - We have completed several level 1 dives in the Ocean Spirit club in Pereybere. It went very well, Bernard took care to ask the right questions before leaving, then the dives went well, the depths are wonderful, very nice experiences. Philippe and Adrien THIBAUD

Dive holiday in Mauritius Grand Baie - My family of 5 did our Nitrox Course at the Ocean Spirit Dive Center. It's conveniently located along the main road. Communication was easy and Riki always responded promptly. Our coach Bobby was excellent and took us through our Course safely and efficiently. Instruction was in English and there wasn't any problem communicating. They provide wetsuits, fins and masks. If you need to have your own personal dive computer, it is better to bring your own as they may not have enough to go around.
