mauritius underwater waterfall explained

Specifically, the East African country of Mauritius sits atop a submarine plateau called the Mascarene Plateau. The unique illusion has a lot to do with the unique formation of the legions of islands in this location. And once you look at it, it will be an unforgettable moment on your trip.

Customized tour itineraries are available from the various points on the island. Special tours are booked to properly explore the site. Very interestingly, the place is visible year-round and is totally safe to swim or even surf on! As the sand and silt deposits flow through the area, the color of the water fluctuates, thus making it appear like a waterfall or as if the area is being sucked into a drain. The underwater currents pull sand from the higher coastal shelf all the way to the deeper levels of water. It isn’t the water that is falling into the unknown that is producing the effect, but it’s the sand and silt sediments that are in continuous movement. 4 Nights / 5 days Mauritius Tour for Familyĥ Nights / 6 days 7 Days Mesmerizing Mauritius TourĦ Nights / 7 days 7 Days Mauritius Honeymoon Package
