About this site
The wreck of the River Taw lies off Trinity Palmetto Point on the Caribbean coast of Saint Kitts, in the eastern stretch of the Lesser Antilles. It sits in shallow water with a maximum depth of around 12 metres, making it a beginner dive well suited to divers still building experience with wreck sites. Divers have also reported octopus around the wreck, adding some interest to what is otherwise a straightforward, shallow site.
