Océane’s cruises take place entirely inside the lagoon, sheltered from the swell of the open ocean. These cruises are thus most often calm and suitable for those who fear seasickness, both on the East and West Coast. Note that the West also benefits from shelter from the wind. Should you prefer to take precautions against possible seasickness, it is recommended you take preventive medication at least 30 minutes before boarding.

Our crew is fully trained to help and instruct you on snorkelling so you can enjoy the wonders of the lagoon underwater. Your scuba diving package includes a seasoned instructor with extensive knowledge of the area, who will guide you through every step of your first dive in the Mauritian ocean.

We will provide you with a mask, snorkel and fins on board, but you are welcome to bring your own.

The covered cabins are strictly no smoking zones. However, you may smoke on the open spaces of our fleet as instructed by the crew.
