About this site
Saint Helena Island sits in the South Atlantic, a remote volcanic outpost roughly midway between Africa and South America, part of the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Its coastline is steep and rocky, dropping quickly into deep water, with dive sites reached by boat from Jamestown.
