About Alien Nation
Alien Nation is a boat-access reef on St. Croix's west end. The site slopes into a broad sponge-covered reef face with enough relief to keep the dive interesting across a flexible profile. The sandy edge often brings eels, turtles, and stingrays into view, so a calm-day boat dive and steady buoyancy make the site feel its best.

Use the mooring line and keep an eye on your profile as the reef slopes away toward sand.
Access Restrictions
