About This Dive Spot

South Point is located at the southern end of Black Island, featuring a sheltered bay that offers three distinct diving options. The left side of the bay is suitable for Open Water (OW) and Advanced Open Water (AOW) divers, while the right side caters to entry-level divers. The shallow sandy bottom within the bay is ideal for training purposes. However, conditions can become unfavorable when south winds are present, and divers should be cautious of boat traffic in the area. Beyond the bay lies a hidden reef that begins at a depth of 20 meters and descends to over 55 meters, making it appropriate only for experienced divers. This site is known for its diverse marine life and is recommended for extended range (XR) dives.
