About this site
South Cay lies on the Pedro Bank, a shallow offshore bank roughly 80 kilometers south and west of the Jamaican mainland in the Caribbean Sea. The cay is one of several small sand islands scattered across this remote bank, accessible mainly by longer boat trips from Jamaica's south coast. The reef here tops out at around 6 metres, a beginner dive with great visibility over a reef bottom. Divers have reported angelfish, grouper, parrotfish, and snapper around the site.
