La Grotte Amedien
La Grotte Amedien: a boat cave dive off Grande Vigie.
Local operator required
Boat-only access and an overhead section make a local guide the right way to run it.
Seasonal north-coast boat cave in Port-Louis with a mineral chamber, coral-garden exit and weather-gated access; plan for summer windows and solid buoyancy.
About La Grotte Amedien
La Grotte Amedien is a boat-access cave dive at Grande Vigie in Port-Louis, Guadeloupe. It starts with a broad mineral grotto that rewards tidy buoyancy and a torch, then moves out toward a coral-garden exit with more life and color. The site is a seasonal north-coast outing, best treated as an operator-led cave dive that depends on calm water, low swell and a good summer window.
