 Some of the best dive sites around La Digue:
One of the better known sites in this area, a series of huge granite boulders surround the small island and drop down in dramatic vertical walls and swim-throughs. The series of protected gullies and bays are home to a prolific fish population including Stingrays, Spotted Eagle Rays, Napoleon wrasse and reef sharks and are also visited by turtles.
These rocks are located mid-channel between Praslin and La Digue and provide a magnet for fish and invertebrate life amid their corals. A series of interesting gullies and holes provide ample shelter to protect not only the shoals of smaller reef fish, but also the larger groupers and snappers.
Here a long granite back stone supports an impressive coral reef, where Moorish Idols, Parrotfish and Surgeonfish swim along Turtles and schools of Eagle Ray. Look out for the beautiful Anemones hosting pairs of Clownfish. The gentle current makes this an excellent site for drift dives.
The gentle drift along the side of the island can reveal several giant stingray and Nutrice shark. Humphead Parrotfish glide past, unconcerned by the presence of divers. Several species of large grouper can also be found, hiding under overhangs and in holes.
Here a long granite backbone supports an impressive coral reef which has become the hunting ground of several small reef sharks. The end of the reef has a series of interesting caves and swim-throughs which harbour a diversity of the shyer fish species.
A circular granite formation adorned with corals with swim throughs and crevices to explore. An ideal location for finding Bumphead parrotfish, Hawksbill turtles and schooling Eagle rays. Small stingrays and white tip sharks sleep under the corals and rocks.
