About this dive site

This dive site, known as Les 3 Vallées, is located near a green buoy and offers a gently sloping coral garden. Divers can expect to descend under the boat, often finding themselves amidst large banks of manioc fish. The underwater navigation is straightforward, following the natural contours of the coral spuds along sandy slopes.

The site is home to a vibrant marine ecosystem. Key attractions include curious kingfish and king mackerel, which frequently pass through the area. Large sherbet fish are also commonly sighted. The gently sloping coral garden itself is rich with various coral formations, providing a healthy habitat for a diverse array of smaller reef fish and invertebrates.

Les 3 Vallées is a fantastic spot for both scuba divers and freedivers due to its accessible depths and rich marine life. The best time to visit is generally during periods of good weather and calm seas for optimal visibility and comfort. Divers should be certified, and freedivers will appreciate the sloping reef structure. Remember to keep an eye out for the larger pelagic species that patrol the area.
