About Sec Delgrès
Sec Delgrès is a Basse-Terre shore dive on a rare Guadeloupe drop-off, with a wall that starts shallow and falls away into deeper water. The site is known for corals, sponges, gorgonians, and a steady mix of reef fish, so the experience is driven by the wall profile, the life, and the shore-entry planning for certified scuba divers.

Not a freedive-first site; the wall profile favors scuba.

Snorkeling is not the main use case; the interesting section is on the wall.
