Coral Garden is a shallow reef dive sitting in the Trou aux Biches area of Mauritius, reaching a maximum depth of 10 metres with the shallowest point at 5 metres. The environment is defined by its coral habitat, offering an impressive diversity of both hard and soft corals across a relatively compact, easy-to-navigate terrain.
The reef holds a good variety of marine life, with clownfish and parrotfish among the residents, and turtles known to glide through on occasion. The coral diversity itself is a draw, with the range of species across the site rewarding time spent exploring at a relaxed pace.
Coral Garden is well suited to beginner divers, and its shallow depth makes it equally appealing for photographers looking for time on the reef without depth or no-decompression constraints.
