About Grandes Jorasses
Grandes Jorasses is an offshore Martinique site with volcanic reliefs, terraced coral plateaus, and a steep wall that drops away near the main route. The site is current-fed and often crystal clear, with pelagic fish, rays, and other larger species moving over the terraces and sandy bends. It is a boat dive for experienced divers who can manage depth and drift, and the plan should assume good buoyancy control near the wall.
