Dive Sites:

D- Just a Nice Dive
Divers will find an abundance of yellow pencil coral and leaf or sheet corals. There are lots of schooling fish at the top of the reef and solitary species, such as ocean triggerfish, are often seen. Depth 20-100 feet (6-30 meters).

E- Nearest Point
Deep mooring with very short swim over to the reef. Best to dive here, as on all the south side of Klein, in the morning, when winds are at their minimum, especially for snorkelers. Divers will find the healthiest and must luxurious coral formations in the Caribbean starting here and continuing on around the south side of Klein. Purple sea fans and lush gorgonians flourish between coral heads on the white, sandy bottom. Hugh heads of mountain corals lie in the drop-off area. At lower depths, black coral can be found, as well as big orange and purple tube sponges. Depth 20-100 feet (6-30 meters).

F- Keepsake
A description for this site is not available at this time.

G- Bonaventure
In the shallows, beautiful pagodas of star coral share their habitat with a large number of gorgonians, which usually harbor a seahorse or two. Angelfish and black durgons often accompany divers up and down the reef. Depth 20-100 feet (6-30 meters).

H- Monte's Divi
There is a good chance of finding a sea horse here. The shallow areas have large stands of staghorn coral. A lone divi divi tree stands guard on shore, directly opposite the moorning site. Depth 15-100 feet (5-30 meters).

I- Rock Pile
The mooring lies directly offshore from a pile of rocks. One of the few sites where one can enjoy a huge colony of staghorn coral, which provides day time hiding places for many schooling fish, such as grunts and snappers. A large green moray eel has been known to hide amongst the boulder corals. Depth 20-100 feet (6-100 meters).

J- Joanne's Sunchi
Joanne's Sunchi has lots of sand chutes and large tube sponges. Also, directly under the boat, large piles of coral rubble form nesting sites for a peculiar fish called a sand tilefish. Depth 20-100 feet (6-30 meters).
