Wrecks

Buccaneer 72' / 22m

This 18 metre sailing vessel lays on its side just off Molinere Reef and is a photographers dream when the sun is right.
It is home to a beautiful Queen Triggerfish with lots of schooling grunts and squirrelfish and also has a friendly octopus that lives in the chain locker.
I have also seen one of the largest groupers lurking in between the ribs of the boat. As you head back towards the reef, look in the sand for an extensive eel garden.

MV Veronica L 45' / 14m

This coastal freighter which is 25 metres long and is fully intact except for the bridge section is one of our favourite dive sites. She was placed in her final resting place on Upper Boss Reef in 2003 after being moved from St Georges Harbour. As this is quite a shallow wreck it can be enjoyed by all levels of diver. She has probably the largest diversity of marine life in such a small area of all our dive sites. As you descend on her there will be patrolling barracuda, horse eyed jacks hunting amongst the brown chromis and creole wrasse. In the engine room you will occasionally find a massive green moray eel. Look closely on this dive site for many marine life treasures. We often use this wreck as our night dive location which is a truly fantastic scuba diving experience here in Grenada.

MV Shakem 100' / 30m

This 180' cargo ship was transporting cement to the port of St.George in 2001. The vessel was overloaded, and the cargo shifted which resulted in the ship sinking within sight of the harbor. It is sitting intact on the bottom in 100ft of water, only a 5 minute boat ride from our Grenada dive shop. Even though it has been on the bottom a short time, it is already home to schools of barracudas and the entire hull is quickly becoming a new reef. This dive is for the experienced diver, and is unique in that it lies on the bottom fully loaded with cargo and intact.

Bianca C 90' -130' / 28m - 40m

The Bianca C, known locally as the 'Titanic of the Caribbean', this is due its sheer size and presence and has very few rivals in the realms of warm water wreck diving. Diving Magazines and experts have listed the Bianca C as one of the 'top ten' wreck dive sites in the world that divers should visit. This enormous 600` Cruise Liner sank in 1961, she sits upright on her keel in 50 metres (165') of water. The history of this ship is so interesting that we have a dedicated website page for the Bianca C. The diving on this wreck never fails to impress and amaze divers, however many times you dive her she never fails to give you the 'wow' factor when reaching the surface. We normally start our dive in the only remaining 'swimming pool', just forward of the 'crack'. As we swim forward towards the bow, keep your eyes peeled for spotted Eagle Rays (seen regularly), Reef Sharks, Nurse Sharks, large Moray Eels, Atlantic Spadefish and Barracudas, because of its position in the ocean the pelagic marine life on the ship is fantastic. Due to its depth, this dive is limited to 'Advanced' level divers only.

MV Unity Courier 40' / 12m

This ship sank in the Carenage in St George's and was cut up into four pieces in 1991, three of the pieces were placed here just off quarantine point, only 5 minutes from our dive shop here in Grenada. This dive site is often referred to as three part wreck. The sections of the ship support some really nice soft corals, lobsters, angelfish and southern stingrays. The adjacent reef is home to the ships two boilers laying side by side. As you swim to the reef look out for the largest conch (lambie) I have ever seen here in Grenada.

MV Hema 1 100' / 30m

This coastal freighter was in transit from Grenada to Trinidad in March 2005 when she got into trouble in rough seas, she sank 3 miles off the South coast of Grenada.
She is influenced by strong Atlantic currents and is home for the largest collection of Nurse Sharks I have seen and some fantastic Spotted Eagle Rays hovering over the wreck.
We have also seen some Reef Sharks checking out this wreck. Due to its position, this dive is for advanced divers only.

Quarter Wreck 20 - 70' / 6 - 20m

This is the final quarter of the wreck of the MV Unity Courier that was placed here in 1991, the stern section with propeller and engine are all still pretty much intact.

She sits on a really pretty reef that is suitable for a shallow dive or if you head North there is a drop off to 20 metres which has a beautiful wall next to a sandy patch that is often home to some extremely large stingrays.
If the moon is right this can be a super drift dive.

Rhum Runner 100' / 30m

This old catamaran was used as a day charter ‘party’ boat which sunk several years ago and sits at the bottom of a beautiful reef and makes an excellent start for our dive. As we leave the wreck we come slowly shallower along a very narrow strip of reef that is host to Horse Eye Jacks, Barracuda, Big Eye and some stunning topography. This wreck and reef are only 5 minutes from the shop and not many other dive centers visit this site. Come with us and enjoy this great dive.

MV Hildur 115' / 35m

This addition to our wrecks in July 2007 was a fantastic bonus to our already outstanding collection.
She is a 30 metre coastal freighter that was abandoned in the lagoon. Within a few days she was already becoming home to reef fish and patrolling Barracuda, we will be watching her closely as she blossoms to become our latest artificial reef.

Underwater Sculpture Park

Underwater Sculpture Park 15' - 25' / 5m - 8m

The Underwater Sculpture Park is the work of sculptor Jason Taylor from England, who has a passion for creating fantastic and unique pieces of work depicting Grenada's colourful history and folklore and placing them underwater.
Dive Grenada worked closely with Jason throughout 2006 to give him the logistical support needed to place his 'works' safely underwater. The response from the customers that we have taken there has been nothing short of amazement and fascination on the whole concept.
You can get a summary on the background of each of the pieces of work by clicking here. Alternatively visit the photographs on our website to see what they look like!

Marine Protected Area

Flamingo Bay 20'-90'/ 6 - 27m

This dive site is situated in the most Northern part of Grenada's National Marine Park and has to be one of the top three sites in Grenada. A mooring on a sandy patch adjacent to the reef makes it ideal for the less experienced diver. The reef is truly a treasure trove of all coral species (including elkhorn) and sponges. The prevalence of seahorses is a particular draw for this site.
Flamingo Bay is as close as you will get to diving or snorkelling in an Aquarium. The plentiful and diverse marine life at this site makes a visit an absolute must during your stay in Grenada.

Happy Valley 20'-90'/ 6 - 27m

Another National Marine Park site which lies between Flamingo Bay and Dragon Bay.
This is a truly amazing wall dive with many interesting features including stunning Great Anemone, a very old admiralty anchor which is slowly becoming part of the reef and some very good examples of Black and Whip corals. There are normally some large schools of Creole Wrasse that join you for the dive. We have seen Manta Rays here on a regular basis which is always a wonderful encounter.

Dragon Bay 25'-95'/ 8 -28m

This area is also part of the National Marine Park.
This dive can be an absolutely stunning shallow dive for beginners or you can head down the sand channels into deeper water for the more advanced diver.
Heading towards Molinere you will come across changing landscapes of gullies, canyons and walls. Large Green Moray, Spiny Lobster, Snapper, Groupers and beautiful French Angel Fish are frequently seen.
It never fails to impress divers.

Molinere Reef 60' - 130' / 18m - 40m

Molinere Reef is part of the Grenada National Park, this dive site is good for beginners as well as the advanced divers amongst you, it also has some excellent snorkelling closer to the shore line.
The Northern part of this bay has been approved by the Government to be the site where the English sculptor Jason Taylor has developed the first very unique underwater sculpture park in the Caribbean. see below!
