The Blue Hole - 30min Flight

Grand Gaube

Activity Description

The Blue Water Hole, a hidden gem in this tropical paradise, with the colors of the water shifting from light aquamarine to dark navy as the plane glides overhead. From above, the clarity of the water is mesmerizing, offering glimpses of the rich marine life that thrives in this protected area.

During the austral winter (June to September), majestic humpback whales migrate from Antarctic feeding grounds to the warmer waters around Mauritius. it’s entirely possible to glimpse these giants off the northeast coast, near the islets such as Coin de Mire, Round and Flat Island, where calm, shallow waters offer ideal breeding grounds . These gentle giants, often accompanied by their calves, perform spectacular surface behaviours—breaching, tail slapping and singing—creating unforgettable experiences for visitors.
