We have maintained the Sea Grass since 2008 and have seen it grow exponentially to now cover some 600 sq metres. With regular Blue Oceans events and daily monitoring we have now been rewarded with a family of Turtles paying daily visits.

Just about 15 kilometers south of the airport sits this marine protected area where you can dive all year round because it is protected by the Trade Winds.

Here we drop into approximately 16 meters and with a short swim drop down to 30 meters and the home of the local family of Stingrays. A group of 5 Rays live in the area and can be hand fed, This is a truly humbling experience when these huge animals glide across you and gently take food from your hand.
