Dive Spot Guide•
The Ledges
Sheltered shallow Culebra boat site with easy snorkeling and cable hazard.
Reached by boat from local Culebra operators. Calm days suit snorkeling and relaxed scuba, but tides can shift the current and old phone lines and cables run across the bottom.
About The Ledges
The Ledges is a sheltered shallow boat site off Culebra with a ledge-and-hard-bottom profile that works well for calm-day snorkeling and relaxed scuba. Tidal currents can shift with the tide, so timing matters more than depth. The bottom also carries old phone lines and underwater cables, so the main planning focus is current, surface awareness, and avoiding entanglement.
