Sea Turtle Snorkel & Reef Dive at Cane Bay Wall

Plunge into Cane Bay, St. Croix's most celebrated dive site, where a sheer 3,000-ft wall drops just 100 yards offshore. Encounter hawksbill sea turtles, spotted eagle rays, and vibrant coral gardens on a guided small-group experience.

What to expect

A short, scenic drive along St. Croix's North Shore brings you to the laid-back village of Cane Bay, where you wade directly into gin-clear Caribbean water. Divers descend alongside the dramatic wall where black coral, orange elephant ear sponges, and pelagic life appear at every depth. Snorkelers hover over healthy shallow reefs teeming with parrotfish and the resident turtle population. After your session, cold beverages and expert marine storytelling from your guides round out the morning.

Good to know

Cane Bay is on the north shore, roughly 20–25 min by taxi from Frederiksted pier. Book the morning slot to maximize bottom time before all-aboard. Certified divers should bring C-cards; resort/discover-scuba options available for non-certified guests.
