Abalone Plongée has been operating from the beach of M'zouasia since 2006. The centre occupies a privileged position in a quiet corner of Mayotte, nestled between the mangroves and coconut trees. It serves as a gateway to some of the most interesting marine environments in the region, from the sheltered reef flats to the more dynamic southern passes.
Life at the centre moves at a slower pace, set against a backdrop of local fishing boats and the natural landscape of the island. It is a dedicated space for divers looking to explore the lagoon's diversity, from shallow reef systems to the more challenging currents found near the passes.
The centre is run by an experienced team of instructors dedicated to both recreational diving and freediving. They offer training through various recognised frameworks, including PADI and ANMP, ensuring a high standard of instruction for all levels.
The team focuses on a variety of disciplines, from initial scuba training to instructor-level certifications. Whether you are starting your journey or working towards professional qualifications, the instructors bring years of local knowledge to the training process.
A full range of training is available, catering to everyone from absolute beginners to professional candidates. The curriculum includes PADI Scuba Diver and Open Water Diver courses, as well as more advanced training for those looking to expand their skills.
For those interested in professional development, the centre offers instructor certification programmes. Beyond scuba diving, Abalone Plongée also provides specialised training in Apnée and Freediving, allowing you to master breath-hold techniques in the local waters.
The centre provides several options for equipment. Divers can choose to dive fully equipped with kit provided by the centre, or opt for specific hire options such as wetsuits, fins, and masks. For those who prefer to use their own regulator and BCD, partial hire is also available.
Equipment is managed on-site at the M'zouasia beach location, allowing for easy access to the water. The centre's flexible approach to kit means you can bring your own preferred setup or rely on their provided equipment for your dives.
The Southern Wild Passes offer a more dynamic diving experience, where the interaction between the ocean and the lagoon creates interesting current conditions. These sites are ideal for divers looking to experience the more energetic side of the Mayotte reef system.
The Double Barrier Inner Reefs provide a different environment, offering exploration through the reef structure. These sites are excellent for observing the diverse marine life that thrives within the protection of the lagoon's reef system.
