Why dive here
With 183+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, sea turtles, sperm whales and lionfish - Dragon Teeth offers some of Inner Islands's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest March, April, May.
Dragon Teeth, a proper seamount dive out from Beau Vallon, is one of those spots that really delivers when the conditions align. You’ll usually drop in to a fairly ripping current, so be ready for that; it's a drift all the way. We love how the topography here just screams "big fish country." It’s a series of granite boulders, almost like a submerged mountain range, dropping down to about 25 metres. We’ve seen schools of bludger trevally here, swirling in the blue, and barracuda often hang motionless in the current. Look for honeycomb groupers tucked into crevices and keep an eye out for a passing sorrah shark. Our favourite part is navigating the gaps between the rocks, where you might find a sleepy hawksbill turtle or a moray eel peeking out. The currents here mean it’s not for absolute beginners, but if you’re comfortable drifting and want to see some proper pelagic action in the Seychelles, Dragon Teeth is a solid choice.
