Boat drop, strong current, and pickup timing are easiest with a Carriacou operator.
The Channel - Grenada is a boat-access drift dive with a live drop-off and strong current, best for experienced divers who are comfortable moving quickly with the reef. The draw is the action rather than a leisurely reef cruise: nurse sharks, oceanic triggerfish, and lionfish are the big names here, and it is a strong lionfish-hunting site.
