Whale Rock

Whale Rock lies about 15 minutes by boat from Beau Vallon, and boats anchor on the sand next to the rocks. Large granite boulders are piled on top of each other and create archways, swim-throughs and corridors. Moray eels, scorpionfish, soldierfish, leaf fish and lionfish shelter in the gaps. Turtles and stingrays are common, and anemones host the Seychelles clownfish.
