La Baleine

This dive site, known as La Baleine (The Whale), is located in the South Caribbean, near a cape characterized by crystal-clear waters and diverse underwater topography. The dive typically involves a drift dive, starting from Three Airs Cove, following the underwater relief which descends to a depth of 25m, although the maximum recommended depth is 16 meters. Navigation is relatively straightforward, following the natural contours of the reef. There is no specific historical information provided about the naming or history of this site.

Marine life is abundant and varied. Divers can expect to encounter a wide array of coral reef fish, including schools of damselfish, moray eels, and various other emblematic species. The presence of worms and spirographs further adds to the biodiversity. The description suggests a rich diversity of invertebrates.

The best time to visit is likely during the warmer months, offering optimal visibility and pleasant water temperatures. Divers and freedivers should be aware of moderate currents, which add to the excitement of the drift dive. It is important to maintain proper buoyancy control and be mindful of the depth. Snorkelers will also benefit from the shallow areas with good visibility.
