About GROS MORNE INTERIEUR
Gros Morne Interieur is a sheltered reef on the Basse Terre side of Guadeloupe with a shallow top, a coral-rich slope, and plenty of gorgonians. It is one of the easiest local dives, which makes it a strong fit for beginner scuba sessions and calm-water snorkel days. The site is more about relaxed reef viewing and steady buoyancy than drama, with a broad mix of small reef fish through the coral structure.
