About this site
Shark Hotel is a reef dive site off the coast of Sint Maarten in the northeastern Lesser Antilles, reached by boat from the island. It reaches a maximum depth of around 36.6 metres, though it is rated a beginner dive overall, suggesting much of it lies in shallower water over the reef with the deeper range further offshore or off the drop-off. As with other reef sites scattered around this part of the Caribbean, it sits within a wider area of similar reef and drop-off dives along Sint Maarten's coastline.
