Bequia reef-and-cave dive with a wide cavern.

About Moonhole Cave
Moonhole Cave is a Bequia reef-and-cave dive where a shallow wall and rolling reef lead into a wide cavern on the ascent. The site starts in clear blue water, drops over boulders and sponges, then gives you a short overhead section that rewards slow, careful looking rather than fast swimming. It suits advanced divers who are comfortable with a compact drift, a cave feature and a route that stays interesting from the first descent to the last stop.

Local Intel For Moonhole Cave
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Drop into the wall, drift past boulders and sponges, and enter the cavern on the ascent only if the line stays calm and controlled.
Freediving
Not ideal for freediving because the cave feature and drift profile are better suited to scuba.
Snorkeling
Not a primary snorkel site; the cavern and current-sensitive drift make it more appropriate for scuba.
