Rempart Serpent is something of a biological one-off! It is a small nondescript reef about 300 feet (90 m) long, a scattered mass of coral boulders on a relatively featureless seabed. For some reason, this rather dull-looking reef hosts extraordinary collections of moray eels, lion fish, and stone fish. The numbers really are quite without precedent—it is rumoured (somewhat improbably) that 32 separate species of moray have been identified at the site. The reason could well be that bait fish cluster around the boulders, but whatever draws these species in to the area in such numbers, it makes for a site that is quite unique in Mauritius, and possibly the entire underwater world.
