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.
