About Point Cistern, Carriacou
Point Cistern, Carriacou is a shallow shore-access macro site between Paradise Beach and Tyrell Bay, built around volcanic boulders, cliffs and a healthy reef cap. It is a strong small-life dive, with stingrays, octopus, lobsters, shrimps and nudibranchs hiding in the rocks and a calm enough top for beginners when the sea is settled. It suits slow, careful diving and photographers who want detail rather than big-water drama.
