Shallow 8 - 12 mtrs / 25 - 40 ft sand channels in the top of the reef extend seaward to the edge which drop to 60 ft / 18 mtrs. Creole wrasse school on the edge and critters abound in the shallows, one of the few places to find the occasional baby Nurse shark in the overhangs on the edge of the reef.

Start at a mooring 7 mtrs / 21 ft with a resident Octopus hiding in it. You can explore the large sand patch or head seaward passing over a forest of Sea plumes and sea rods then onto a hard reef slowly descending to the reef edge between 30 ft / 10 mtrs and 70 ft / 21 mtrs with large rocks scattered off the edge

The rest of 1 / 4 Wreck (1.5 miles away) These sections didn’t fall off the barge in transit and are sat upright on the bottom at 45 ft / 15 mtrs. Sank in the early 80’s they are covered in coral and due to the rubble bottom you can find any number of weird critters here. A wonderful muck dive.

Sank in 2018 is this 100ft / 30 mtr ex coastguard cutter. It has had engines and doors removed and is perfect for the wreck course or penetration / exploration by those certified. Just behind this wreck are the remains of a Concrete built Cuban fishing boat that is covered in corals and sponges.

Deepwater ridge outside “Bass Reef“ starts at 50 ft/ 17m and drops to 48 m/ 150 ft on the outside edge. Old Anchors can be seen sticking out of the reef from when the French had to cut the lines and run for Moliniere Point away from the English naval attack.

Originally sank accidentally in the early 1980s it was lifted and moved in 2006 to make way for the Cruise dock and so this 100ft / 30 mtr wreck now lies in 45 ft / 15 mtrs of water outside St Georges harbour. Covered in marine life with schools of chromis over the wreck she is a fantastic dive, day or night.

Actually an anglicised corruption of Bass Reef which is the original name for the shallower reef system outside Grand Anse bay named not only for the Variety of species but the number of larger ones able to be caught before overfishing. Ranges from 20 ft to an average of 70 ft / 21 mtrs.

Wreck found by mistake after divers ended a dive and drifted over it on ascent spotting it lying on the sand at 31 mtrs / 105 ft. No-one could find information on this wreck, however it looks similar in style to the “Rhum Runner“ party boats running from St. Georges.

Sunk on purpose, it is actually 2 wrecks. The Barge sits at 70 ft / 21 mtrs and Fiona (which is a fishing boat) sits at about 17 mtrs / 50 ft on a sandy bottom. Attracts lots of fish and around the wrecks in the sand can be found any number of unusual critters, even once a Planehead Filefish.

Continuation of the “Sherwood Forest“ ridge that starts at about 17 m / 50 ft and slopes to a max depth on the outside of 48 m / 150 ft. A large section of Sea plume Forests interspersed with hard coral sections are covered in gorgonians and the top has small sandy areas and underhangs for lobsters.
