About this site
Pelican Rock lies in the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Sint Maarten, in the Lesser Antilles, and is typically reached by short boat trips from the island's marinas. Divers here have reported Atlantic blue tang and sergeant majors moving over coral growth that includes mountainous star coral, mustard hill coral, and symmetrical brain coral. Redband and stoplight parrotfish have also been spotted grazing the reef structure around the rock.
