About Oeil
Oeil is a boat-access arch-and-cavern dive on the Port-Louis coast, built around two arches that open into a small grotto and shaded crevices. It suits divers who like compact structure dives and steady buoyancy, with a torch helping to read the darker pockets and the tucked-away cracks where the resident fish and invertebrates shelter.
