Great to have you on SB. Mauritius is one location I've considered to dive. Look forward to your posts.

Welcome to the board. I recently got ocean wet for the first time in Mauritius (with Blue Water Divers in Trou aux Biches). Where on (or should I say 'off) the island do you dive?

Hi, labesage! How are you? I'm from Brazil and I'm planning to dive in Mauritius next July 2012 with my wife. So far I've been looking for a dive center that offers dives in caves (in Flic en Flac, am I right?). I'm a IANTD certified "Intro to Cave" diver. Would you happen to know any such center that could take me there?

Also, I was wondering how good are the dives from the shore. We'll be staying next to Pereybere Beach, but I'm gonna rent a car to travel around the island. Does any center rent cylinders or should I take mine?

I hope you don't mind me loading you up with questions, it's just that there seems to be so many options that I'd better rely on the opinions of a local. Thanks!
