Sheltered Grenada bay with sand channels and a reef slope.
Sheltered Grenada bay with sand channels and a reef slope.
Dragon Bay is a sheltered Grenada bay in the Marine Protected Area with sand channels, a sloping reef, and a shallow top that suits beginners and snorkelers. The bay mixes volcanic rock, sandy bottom, seagrass, and a small barge, so the route stays varied without feeling technical. Expect gentle water for much of the bay, but keep an eye on the outer edge where the pull can build.

Scuba Diving
A forgiving dive with a shallow top, sand channels, and a reef slope that opens into sponges and fish life.

The shallow bay fringe works for controlled freedive sessions, but the outer side and deeper slope call for tight planning and a surface watch.
Snorkeling
One of Grenada's stronger snorkel bays, with shallow sand, volcanic rock, and clear water close to shore.
