About this site
Monkey Shoals lies in the Caribbean Sea off Saint George Basseterre, on the coast of Saint Kitts and Nevis, and is typically reached by boat from the island's dive operators. It is a reef site reaching a maximum depth of around 25 metres and is rated an advanced dive. Divers have reported currents, large Atlantic swells, and wind affecting conditions here, so timing and sea state matter more than at sheltered sites nearby.
