This dive site, Wendy's Garden, is located just south of the Soufriere Jetty in Dominica and offers an easy, gently sloping entry from shore. It provides a classic Dominica reef experience, making it highly accessible and suitable for divers of various experience levels. Navigation is straightforward due to the gentle slope, and a dive guide is required to ensure a safe and informed exploration of the site.
Underwater, divers are treated to a vibrant display of marine life, including brilliant sponges, a rich variety of abundant reef fish, and an array of hard and soft corals. Keep an eye out for the occasional seahorse, a highlight for many visitors. The site also features unique volcanic fumeroles, often referred to as 'Champagne Bubbles', which add a distinctive natural spectacle to the dive.
For an extraordinary experience, plan your visit for the 'right time of year' to witness an amazing bait ball, a spectacular natural event. With its shallow maximum depth and easy conditions, Wendy's Garden is highly suitable for both snorkeling and freediving, offering beautiful sights close to the surface.
