Why dive here
With 73+ marine species recorded in the area - including dugongs, great white sharks, humpback whales and sperm whales - Le Sournois offers some of Prony Bay's richest diving. Water ranges 22-27°C, warmest January, February, March.
Le Sournois sits within Prony Bay, offering a relaxed dive. It’s a good spot for finding some of the smaller, shyer reef inhabitants tucked away in the nooks and crannies. We often find this site works well for newer divers, or those looking for a chilled-out second dive of the day. Visibility can vary, but it’s generally calm.
