Bequia drift dive with a sloping reef finish.
Flat Rock is a Bequia drift dive that runs north to south and finishes on a sloping reef where the safety stop feels built into the route. The site is compact and readable underwater, with fan coral, sponges and a steady mix of reef life making the drift interesting without turning technical. It suits intermediate divers who like an easy-moving profile, clear structure and a dive that still rewards good buoyancy on the way out.
