Scuba Diving in the Seychelles
With a generous weather system Seychelles has numerous islands all within close proximity to each other providing excellent diving for novices through to advanced divers.

Best diving conditions are between March & May and October & November although other times are acceptable where specific sites are chosen that have protection from  prevailling winds.

The islands of Mahe, Praslin and La Digue have excellent dive sites with qualified dive centres. Smaller islands such as Denis, Bird, Desroches, Fregate and North also have dive centres.

What are you likely to see?

Due to the numerous islands, reefs and atolls, you are likely to see a vast array of fish species from the tiniest of clownfish to magnificent Whale Sharks. Seychelles is an absolute treasure chest of colourful marine life, coral formations and underwater features.
