Diving in Saint Barthélemy

Explore diving in Saint Barthélemy

Scuba diving in St Bart's warm Caribbean waters offers lovely coral reefs. The colors are magnificent, largely because of the shallow water (the channel between St Barts and St Martin reaches no deeper than about 30 m) and the sandy bottom, which reflects the sunlight.

There are plenty of small and colorful reef fish. In addition to gorgeous reefs, St. Barts also plays host to a wreck dive, The Kaïali. In 30m of water, this site contains two entrances and is suitable for advanced divers.

There are also several large caverns scattered around the island’s walls, adding diversity to the 22 dive sites scattered around the island. For divers visiting this luxury Caribbean paradise, it's good to know there's some enjoyable diving just minutes away.
