Ocean Economy is the next big thing in Mauritius as the country endeavours to tap into the potential of its territorial waters the extent of which are equivalent to more than 1,000 times its land mass. Apart from traditional fishing and fish processing activities, the ‘Ocean Economy’ encourages the development of aquaculture, Seabed exploration for hydrocarbons and minerals and general marine activities. The Port Louis harbour is being further modernized to cater for enhanced marine and shipping activities.
