About Roche Guizmo
Roche Guizmo is a Banc des Vaisseaux boat dive off Saint-Francois, with a rocky coral massif, white sand patches, and a relaxed reef profile that fits neatly into a standard Guadeloupe day trip. The site is one of the regular remote runs from the east coast, so the main planning consideration is the boat transit rather than a complicated in-water setup.
