About this site
Pate Anse Severe is a dive site off La Digue in the Seychelles. A long granite backbone runs through the site and supports an impressive coral reef.
Moorish idols, parrotfish and surgeonfish swim along the reef, and turtles and schools of eagle rays pass through. Anemones here host pairs of clownfish. The current is gentle, which makes this an excellent site for drift dives.
