Snorkeling on Cousine Island

For those looking to journey beneath the polished waters of Cousine, the island is one of the best places in the world for snorkelers to experience diverse and vibrant sea-life. Snorkeling on Cousine Island reveals some of the widest biodiversity in the world. Guided snorkeling activities can be organized to point out the best spots for specific sightings and one-of-a-kind finds. We also offer a guided snorkel at the back of the island, which is not accessible by beach and can be accessed with our Mini Mahe boat.

What equipment do I need?

You’re welcome to bring your own, but our scuba dive center is fully equipped with diving and snorkeling gear.

What is the best time of year for excursions?

Snorkeling is available all year round, depending on weather conditions. Water is clearest during March, April and November. See our Eco Calendar for details.
