Several species of dolphins are present in the lagoon of Mayotte throughout the year (Bottlenose dolphin, Humpback dolphin, Spotted dolphin, Longnose dolphin, Electra dolphin...). And from March to June the Alfredi's Manta Rays come to feed in the plankton-rich waters of the lagoon.

Sea Blue offers you the chance to approach these cetaceans while respecting the rules of approach in order to observe them without disturbing them. You will have the chance to swim with them if sea conditions permit.

The island of Mayotte or the island with the huge lagoon is the ideal place : close to the south-east coast of Africa, it is awonder of nature with a lagoon of a richness : thelagoon is very rich.
