Offering plenty for experienced divers, Grenada is home to over 50 dive sites, ranging from stunning coral reefs and fascinating wrecks to adrenaline charged drift dives. Divers looking to get up close to the marine life can admire seahorses, spotted eagle rays, moray eels, frogfish and sharks, while those more interested in wrecks have a wide range to choose from including the Bianca C – a 200 metre liner that sank in 1961, and the Hema 1 – Grenada’s newest wreck. Other highlights include the eel garden at ‘Northern Exposure’; the treasure-trove of marine species at ‘Flamingo Bay’; the other worldly underwater sculpture park at ‘Moliniere Reef’; and the drift dive at ‘Purple Rain’ which gives the chance to dive in a shower of purple Creole wrasse.
