Dive Spot Guide•
POINTE FERRY
Shore reef with canyon swim-throughs and dense fish life.
Shallow shore access, coral canyons, and strong fish density make this a high-return dive when currents stay manageable.
About POINTE FERRY
Pointe Ferry is a shore-accessed reef on the south side of Deshaies with multiple underwater canyons and a low coral wall. The site is fish-rich, with trevally passing through, and the reef is also strong on macro and small-structure detail. It is an easy place to enjoy on calmer days, but the current can change the dive quickly.
