About this dive site

This dive site, known as Condo, is characterized by a large rock formation on a sloping bottom, believed to have been formed by the volcanic explosion that created the island of Dominica. Divers can explore numerous cracks and crevices within this rock, which give the site its name and provide shelter for various creatures. The site also features a large sandy area teeming with garden eels and offers exciting swim-throughs for exploration, combining both sand and rock pinnacle environments.

The marine life here is diverse, with highlights including abundant lobsters and crabs hidden within the rock's 'condo-like' crevices. The sandy expanses are home to extensive colonies of garden eels, while sting rays can often be spotted gliding across the bottom. Schools of grunts and snappers frequent the area, creating a vibrant underwater spectacle.

Condo is an excellent year-round destination, though the dry season (December to May) typically offers the best visibility and calmer conditions. Its combination of sand and rock pinnacle exploration makes it suitable for both wide-angle and macro photography. Freedivers will appreciate the accessible depths and varied topography, while scuba divers of all levels can enjoy the rich biodiversity and unique geological features.
