In 1989, 3 ships were deliberately sunk: in October - a dredge, in February - 2 barges serving it. The places where they are flooded are called: Dredger wreck and Two Barges. They are located close to each other next to Fisherman's Cove on the northeast coast of Mahe. Here, not far from the coast, there are numerous places for diving both on coral reefs and in rocks. The dredge is almost always covered with schools of blue striped snappers. When approaching it, you are convinced that it has become a haven for many species of scorpions and sculpins, and especially moray eels. Two barges sunk close to each other can be visited in one dive. Almost the same variety of fauna living in them.

Underwater rocks 8 km west of Beau Vallon Bay. The height of the rock rises from a depth of 45 meters to 19 meters. The rocks are known for encountering huge gray tailfish, schools of small barracudas and batfish on almost every dive. As on most offshore jars, there are a lot of big fish here: homemade huge guppers and regular guests, such as whale sharks. Slightly creepy rocks and beautiful fan gorgonians.
A very small granite island with a few palm trees north of Beau Vallon Bay. The constant flow through the narrow strait between the shore and the island causes a variety of marine fauna here. The soft coral gardens with big fish on the east side of the reef are some of the most spectacular in the Seychelles. The northern side is a heap of huge granite rocks.
