Grenada & Carriacou / Special Interests / Dive Sites

Underwater Sculpture Park – 15’-25’/5m-8m
This is an exciting concept in the world of marine conservation and scuba diving in the Caribbean. Grenadian-borne artist Jason Taylor has created an underwater world of art installations depicting Grenada’s colourful history and folklore. As you snorkel or dive your way around Moliniere Bay, shapes and bodies appear to you from the depths.

MV Unity Courier – 40’/12m
In 1991 this ship was cut into four pieces and taken from where it sank in the Carenage to four sites off Quarantine Point. You will see an abundance of soft corals and are likely to find lobsters, angelfish and some southern stingrays. If the moon is right you can enjoy a superb night drift dive on the Quarter Wreck passing the stern, complete with its propeller and engine.

MV Veronica L – 45’/14m
A favourite dive for beginners and experts alike, this 25 metre coastal freighter sits atop the Upper Boss Reef. It teems with marine life for such a small area. You will probably see barracuda; horse eyed jacks, brown chromis and creole wrasse, as well as the occasional huge green moray eel. MV Veronica is also a popular night dive location.

Buccaneer – 72’/22m
A photographer’s dream just off Moliniere Point, this 18 metre sailing vessel is home to an octopus, queen triggerish and lots of schooling grunts and squirrelfish.

Rhum Runner - 100’/30m
A day charter catamaran that was sunk several years ago and which plays host to a number of horse eyed jacks, barracuda and big eye. Only five minutes from the dive shop, this makes a good dive which not many of the other dive operators on the island visit.

MV Hema 1 – 100’/30m
En route to Trinidad, this coastal freighter got into trouble in rough seas and sank three miles off the south coast. Due to its position it is influenced by strong Atlantic currents and is recommended for advanced divers only. The largest collection of nurse sharks is watched by spotted eagle rays above and some reef sharks.

MV Shakem – 100’/30m
Experienced divers only. A 180’ cargo ship that lies completely intact and full of cargo in 100 feet of water. Whilst transporting cement to St George’s in 2001 the cargo shifted and caused it to sink. The entire hull is close to becoming a new reef and is already home to schools of barracudas.

MV Hildur – 115’/35m
The newest addition to the abundant list of dive wrecks on Grenada, a 30 metre coastal freighter that was sunk in July 2007 and is quickly being coralised. Watch closely as it develops.

Bianca C – 90’-130’/28m-40m
Known locally as the ‘Titanic of the Caribbean’, this 600ft cruise liner has been ranked in the top ten list of wreck dive sites by journalists and divers alike. Because of its depth it is suitable for advanced divers only. You will see eagle rays, reef sharks, nurse sharks, large moray eels, Atlantic spadefish and barracudas of course.
