About this site
Dog Island is a marine sanctuary in the Caribbean, with dives at about 8 to 15 metres (25 to 50 feet). Because of its protected status, the coral growth is exceptionally healthy, with large stands of elkhorn coral and vast gardens of swaying sea fans.
That biodiversity makes it a reliable site for spotting hawksbill turtles, and the water is exceptionally clear and calm. It is an ideal location for a relaxed, nature-focused dive.
