Crystal Divers Mauritius

Located in the Grand Baie area near Trou Aux Biches, Crystal Divers Mauritius has been established since 2018. This PADI 5 Star centre is a key hub for both recreational divers and those looking to enter the professional side of the industry.

The centre is distinguished by its commitment to sustainability, holding the PADI Green Star Award as an Eco Resort. This focus on reducing their carbon footprint is matched by their technical approach to diving, including the use of aluminium cylinders which are lighter and more comfortable to handle than traditional steel tanks.

As the only 5 Star Career Development Centre in Mauritius, the facility is geared towards high-level professional training. They support divers through the entire PADI progression, from initial certifications to the highest levels of professional instruction.

The team is built around a passion for marine conservation and environmental awareness. Their training programmes integrate Project AWARE specialties, ensuring that divers are not just proficient in the water, but also active participants in protecting the local reef ecosystems.

The course catalogue is extensive, covering the full spectrum of PADI certifications. Beginners can start with Discover Scuba Dive or the PADI Open Water Diver course, while those looking to advance can progress through Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver, and eventually Master Scuba Diver.

For professional divers, the centre offers Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, and Instructor programmes. They also provide specialized training such as Deep Diver, Wreck Diver, Night Diver, and Sidemount Diver, alongside technical and specialty skills like Peak Performance Buoyancy and Underwater Navigator. Environmental training is also a core component, with various Project AWARE specialties available.

The centre is equipped with a dedicated training pool, providing a controlled environment for skill practice and course work. This is an essential resource for those working through their initial certifications or refining buoyancy.

For those looking to extend their bottom time or dive more frequently, Enriched Air Nitrox is available on-site. The centre also maintains a full range of equipment for hire and provides emergency oxygen services to ensure safety standards are met.
