    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Piste de ski is a solid introductory dive within the calm Mayotte Lagoon, ideal for getting comfortable again or for newer divers. At a consistent 17 metres, it’s a gentle slope, hence the name, where you'll often find a good mix of smaller reef fish darting around the scattered coral bommies. We’ve spotted plenty of butterflyfish and parrotfish here, sometimes a juvenile sweetlips tucked into a crevice. The visibility is usually pretty good, making it a relaxing spot to just cruise along and enjoy the warm water.
