About this site
Lesleen M is a wreck at Anse La Raye in the north west of St. Lucia, a 165-foot (about 50 metre) freighter that was sunk in October 1986 as part of a Department of Fisheries project to create artificial reefs. It sits on an even keel on the sand, 9 metres (30 feet) down to the sand deck and 19.8 metres (65 feet) at the deepest point.
The hold and the engine room can be explored. The hull is already covered in soft corals, sponges and hydroids, and it serves as habitat for many juvenile fish, such as Nassau grouper and queen and French angelfish.
