About Le Souffleur
Le Souffleur is a Port-Louis arch dive with a small underwater opening, a passage below the reef, and a larger arch that gives the site its best light. The site stays shallow to moderate, so it feels more like a controlled guided dive than a long technical route. Sponges, corals, and gorgonians keep the scene colorful, while lobsters, spider crabs, cleaner shrimps, and stingrays are common highlights.
