About this dive site

This dive site, Jeannie’s Glory, offers a unique experience within a shallow sandy plateau. The area features reefs on either side of the plateau, teeming with diverse reef fish and larger predators like barracuda. Access can be challenging due to large boulders and a rutted reef ledge that requires navigating a path. Divers should exercise caution during periods of high wave action. An intriguing historical element is present: just before reaching the shore, an unmarked grave holds skeletal remains—likely those of either a former slave who worked in salt ponds or a settler from the Spanish colonization era. This site presents an opportunity for underwater exploration combined with a glimpse into the island's past.
