Dominica's
Dive Sites
The following Dive Sites have been given ratings based on both the
currents and the required skill level of a diver. However, as with
all dives, plans can change daily. The instructor or divemaster
will generally begin the week with easier dives and increase the
level of difficulty of the dive site as the week progresses. Given
the right conditions, there is no reason why divers should not do
a more advanced site on a particular day. Remember, the site destination
is determined by the individual instructor or divemaster onboard.
He or she is in charge and will let you know whether or not it is
safe to dive a site.
