Remote access and fast current make local guidance the practical way to dive it.
Black Rocks, Carriacou is a remote volcanic boat dive at the southern tip of the island, far from habitation and exposed to very strong current. The black rock pinnacles rise from the seabed to just above the surface and create a dramatic drift dive where triggerfish, barracuda, and sharks move through the water. This is an advanced site for divers who are comfortable with fast current and a dramatic offshore setting.
