St Croix scuba diving - a reason for your vacation
ST. Croix is not a volcanic island, it is a plate that has been pushed up. There is a small ledge surrounding the island and then it drops off to 1 to 2 thousand feet. St. Croix has the second largest barrier reef in the Caribbean. There are over 100 dive sites. Here are some of the favorites: Scotch Banks: A flat sandy submerged mountain top east of Christiansted harbor. Mooring is in 25 feet of water. The wall is 15 yards east, starts at 40 feet and drops to over 1,000 feet. On the top of the wall lots of pillar coral surrounded with barred soldier fish and grunts. Off the wall barracuda, angel fish, elephant ear sponge, horse eye jacks and once in a while a eagle rays, manta rays and even whale sharks. Dump truck: At 130 feet on a ledge is a 1930 s dump truck that is lying on its side. We believe that the trash was taken out to sea back then and the truck accidentally fell off the barge. Full of black coral and sponge life. Usually a big turtle or eel hanging out there. Great for photos. Rust - op - twist: Named after a sugar plantation. One time home to a shrimp farm. Pipes for the deep water intake still underwater. This area has the deepest water closet to shore in the Caribbean. Healthy corals, black durgons snappers, lobster and eels. Black coral on the wall. Two moorings on this wall site. Eagle ray: Just outside of the harbor entrance, mooring in 28 feet, gentle slope big coral heads in sand. Usually see eagle rays feeding here. Great dive for beginners as well as advanced. Twin Anchors: In about 45 feet a very large 200 year plus anchor from the old Danish days of St. Croix. Probably from the sugar plantation days. Over 8 feet in length. Another anchor in 55 feet lodged in the corals and covered in coral. Healthy corals and lots of tropicals. White Horse Reef: Two small reefs nearly breaking the surface. Many a boat has sunk here. You can find broken cannon, old wood and nail and chain from very old boat. New boats have hit it too. Nice shallow dive. Gentle Winds: Named after a condo on the beach there. Healthy corals lots of marine life. Mooring starts in 40 feet, gentle slopping seascape.
