Labyrinthe 1 is a standout site, exactly what you hope for when you hear "Loyalty Islands diving." It’s less a dive site and more a geological playground, a network of swim-throughs, tunnels, and arches that feel custom-made for divers. We love the way the light filters in, creating these incredible shafts through the gloom, especially in the larger fault lines. You’ll be squeezing through passages draped in gorgonians, then popping out into sunlit clearings. Keep an eye out for the smaller stuff too; we’ve spotted Honeycomb coral clinging to the walls and even some well-camouflaged Prickly Spotted Drupes. The maximum depth of 22 metres means you get plenty of bottom time to explore without rushing. Our best advice? Stick close to your guide. Seriously. It’s called Labyrinthe for a reason, and it’s surprisingly easy to get turned around with so many twists and turns. The adjacent cleaning station means you might just get a curious oceanic manta ray checking you out as you navigate the passages, which is always a bonus. It’s perfect for divers who enjoy intricate topography and aren’t afraid of a bit of close-quarters navigation.
