Diving and Snorkelling Sites:

Dive sites vary in depth from 8 to 30 metres and provide conditions for divers of all abilities. Morning dives are generally deeper dives, while afternoon dives tend to be shallower.  The inshore dives provide sheltered conditions on both granitic and coral reefs; while the coral structures were affected by the 1998 bleaching event the fish and marine life have recovered well and are abundant.

 

The offshore or long-range dive sites of the inner islands offer some of the very best diving in Seychelles and are suitable for more experienced divers as these sites tend to be deeper and may have current conditions. These conditions tend to attract  the larger marine life found around Seychelles with the chance for divers to encounter whale sharks and giant stingrays.
