St. Croix Scuba Diving
The question is not where to dive, it's how many days do you have to dive? St. Croix's tropical waters invite you in and embrace you once you're there. You have more than 50 sites to choose from, including a drop-off on the north shore called the "the wall."
The
wall at Cane Bay, a short swim from the beach, runs almost the
entirety of the North Shore - from Salt River to Ham's Bluff with
an approximate depth of 3,200 feet. Diving in Frederiksted offers six sunken ships and the pier, which is one of the best night dives on the island. Almost all of our dive shops offer a one day introductory course, so you have no excuse but to experience scuba for yourself.

Just
like the name says, Scubawest is located on the west side of St. Croix,
on the waterfront in the town of Frederiksted. Because of their
location, Scubawest is the closest dive shop to some of St. Croix's
most interesting dives. Off the shores of the west end are many
shipwrecks and reefs, as well as the Frederiksted pier, one of St. Croix's
best night dives, and home of such elusive sea creatures as seahorses
and frog fish. Visit our website for dive package information,
as well as adventure diver vacation ideas. See the staff's friendly
