With 511+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, blue sharks, dolphins and eagle rays - Le jardin des kiosques offers some of Saint-Gilles & West Coast's richest reef diving. Water ranges 25-29°C, warmest January, February, March.
Le jardin des kiosques is one of those easy, relaxed dives that’s perfect for getting back into the swing of things, or for newer divers finding their fins. At a comfortable 18m, it’s a gentle introduction to the reef life off Saint-Gilles. We’ve found it’s a good spot to simply drift along, keeping an eye out for the smaller reef fish darting between the coral formations. You won't find anything dramatic here, but it’s a pleasant way to spend an hour underwater, soaking in the quiet calm.
