Grenada · Grenada
A broad volcanic reef plateau extending from 6 to 25 metres off Grenada's southern coast, known for its unusually high coral cover and the density of large hawksbill turtles that feed on the abundant sponge population. The site sits in the lee of Point Saline, which blocks the prevailing swell and creates dive conditions calm enough for beginners even when the rest of the island is rough. Green morays, huge parrotfish, and a regular resident eagle ray named by local guides complete the cast.
