Glovers Reef
Current-washed reef with holes and crevices
Boat-access Carriacou reef with strong current and plenty of crevice life for controlled scuba dives.
About Glovers Reef
Glovers Reef is a shallow current-washed reef off Carriacou with holes, crevices and sponge growth shaped by moving water. The reef rewards slow, controlled dives: drums, smaller eels, king crabs and juvenile fish make the openings busy, while soft corals and pillar corals keep the structure varied. It is better for boat-based divers who are comfortable managing current than for casual beginners looking for an easy swimout.
