Dredger Rock, Mahé

Dredger Rock is a coastal reef site off Mahé, known for a shallow, sheltered profile and a man-made dredger wreck that's become part of the local underwater habitat. Expect a sandy bottom with patches of soft coral and some rugged rock formations providing shelter for small reef fish. Access is straightforward from the shore, with entry typically from a gentle descent and visibility often ranging from fair to good in calm conditions. The site suits beginner to intermediate divers and is commonly visited alongside nearby reef systems in the Mahé area. Marine life includes a mix of typical Seychelles species such as fusiliers, clownfish, parrotfish, damselfish, and occasional reef sharks when conditions allow, plus seafans and soft corals that adorn the rocky ledges.
