Passe intérieure de Boulari

Passe intérieure de Boulari, inside Prony Bay, is a drift dive we always look forward to. Drop in at the start of an outgoing current, and you’re immediately swept along, gliding over coral patches with schools of fusiliers so thick they sometimes block out the sun. We’ve had some fantastic encounters here – whitetip reef sharks resting on the sandy bottom, big spotted groupers hanging out under ledges, and once, a curious reef manta ray circled us for a good five minutes. The maximum depth is around 17 metres, making it a pretty relaxed dive, even with the current. Visibility tends to be solid, often pushing 20 metres. We love the feeling of being carried along, eyes scanning for passing pelagics like grey reef sharks or eagle rays that often cruise through the channel. It’s an easygoing drift that suits most divers comfortable with some current, offering a lively cross-section of what the bay has to offer.
