Part of Princess Alexandra National Park, this area is primarily spur and groove formations, with rolling walls.
|
This is an excellent site teeming with life. Spur and groove formations lead out to a large basin on the wall. This is a good sight for large schools of Atlantic Spadefish, big groupers, sharks, and lots of other life. |
|
Spur and groove formations run out to the wall. Mooring is in about 35'. Sight gets its name from coral rubble scattered on the upper reef slope. |
|
Overhangs, small canyons and ledges, and large pieces of Pillar Coral are part of what makes this dive interesting. Starting in 40 ft of water, the coral rises give way to sand channels that lead out to the wall. This is an ideal location to find Nurse Sharks. |

A beautiful mini-wall dive, just a 10-15 minute boat ride from the North side of Provo. Here divers begin their dive by dropping in on top of the reef at about 25ft, where healthy soft corals and schooling fish are abundant. A great variety of fish are typically encountered on a Grace Bay dive. The mini-wall itself begins at about 35 ft, and drops off to a sandy bottom at 80-100ft. This is a good area to keep an eye open for larger marine life such as reef sharks and eagle rays that cruise these waters, particularly in the summer time. |

A beautiful Shore dive! |

Tjis site starts at the mooring in about 40 feet. There is a nice notch in the wall starting about 50 feet dropping down to about 100 feet. Spur and groove formations allow easy access to and from the wall. |

A beautiful Grace Bay dive site that offers one of the prettiest coral formations in the area. Starting at 25 ft, huge mounds of Star and Brain Coral, along with impressive stands of Pillar Coral, combine with deep cuts in the reef to provide divers with overhangs and legdes galore! At approx 35 feet the mini-wall slopes off to a depth of approx 100 ft, and is a great area to see Reef Sharks and Spotted Eaglerays cruising the wall. Turtles are also a common find here. |
|
Just west of the mooring is a large depression in the reef top which drops to sheer walls and runs out to the wall. |
|
This shallow site, accessible only in good conditions, offers up a huge variety of marine life and interesting coral formations. Starting at a depth of 20 ft and heading in towards the barrier reef, divers spend their time here exploring the numerous coral overhangs and archways.This is an EXCELLENT site to find large nurse sharks. Another highlight is 'sinkholes' that, at certain times of the year, fill with thousands of tiny 'silversides' (bait fish). As you swim through these 'balls' of fish, they part and surround you....an experience you won't soon forget! A dive here may also offer up some fish that are not often seen on our deeper sights such as Copper Sweepers, as well as finding Spotted Drums, lobsters, and crabs. A beautiful site to take your time and explore |
