Ile Fourchue

Ile Fourchue is the greatest diving location in the area, and it's easy to get to by boat. In around 33 feet of water, anchor your dinghy east of the little island off the southwest edge of Ile Fourche (10m). Because anchoring your dinghy at the northwest end of the dive site in 70 feet of water is not possible, you will almost always be diving 'down-current.'

As a result, it is highly advised that you only use one-third of your air supply before returning 'up-current.' Check for a northwest-running current and adjust your dive accordingly. The finest diving is found on the island's south and west edges. Numerous fish species, enormous barracuda, gorgeous hard and soft corals, large sea fans (gorgonia), and 4ft barrel sponges be found in Ile Fourchue.

Stingrays, spotted eagle rays, and turtles are all common sightings, and a manta ray has even been observed here. Inappropriate When there are strong trade winds and a strong current, or when there are enormous southerly or westerly swells. Always keep an eye on the stream and adjust your descent accordingly.

You'll be able to enjoy this stunning drift dive after 30 minutes onboard. With a maximum depth of 15 meters, this dive site appears to have been kept untouched, and the crystal blue waters and schools of fish make it picture-perfect. Stingrays and barracudas, as well as Caribbean turtles, will be seen. Many visitors consider this to be one of the Best Diving Sites in Saint Barthelemy (France).
