About this site
Banc Des Gorgones sits among the dive sites off Nosy Be, an island off the northwest coast of Madagascar in the Diana region, in the waters of the Mozambique Channel. The name points to a seamount or bank formation known locally for its gorgonian fan growth. Divers here have also reported nudibranchs and snapper on the reef.
