Turtle Rock, Mauritius, is a stunning dive site known for its clear waters, dramatic rock formations, and abundant marine life. It features large granite boulders rising from sandy seabeds, creating caves and swim-throughs that shelter diverse sea creatures.
It is home to green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas). Giant stingrays, schools of batfish, trevally, and occasionally manta rays can be seen here.
