Description
Voted one of the top dive spots in the Caribbean by Skin Diver magazine you can dive some of the best spots in the world off the shores of St. Croix! A Frederiksted Dive on the leeward side or West end of St. Croix offers lake like conditions and the opportunity to dive three wreck sites and a virgin coral reef with a variety of marine life. Your shallow wreck tour starts with the Suffolk Maid, a 144’ North Sea fishing trawler that sits in 60' of water. You'll proceed past a barge named The Virgin Islander and on to a portion of underwater habitat, now defunct. Progressing along to the final wreck, we will dive the North Wind, a 75’ tugboat sitting in only 40' of water. The North Wind was used in the movie "Dreams of Gold, The Mel Fisher Story". After visiting these three wrecks, a short boat ride along the beautiful coast of St. Croix will find you at a healthy, very colorful, West end coral reef. At an average depth of just 45’, it is a relaxing, easy dive. Conveniently, it’s less than a 10 minute ride back to the cruise ship pier after this dive.
