This dive site, Pointe Morphy, offers a magnificent underwater journey starting at a shallow 4 meters. Divers navigate through extensive potato coral formations until they reach two prominent rock blocks at 15 meters, where marine biodiversity significantly increases. While the site description mentions it extends deeper to 25 meters, the most vibrant life is concentrated around the shallower rocks. There is no specific historical narrative provided for this site.
Pointe Morphy is renowned for concentrating the rich underwater life of the Antilles. Divers frequently encounter impressive pelagic species such as king mackerel, barracudas, and majestic eagle rays patrolling the open blue. The coral formations, particularly the 'potato coral', provide a rich habitat for a variety of smaller reef fish and invertebrates, contributing to an explosion of marine activity.
The best time to visit Pointe Morphy, like much of the Caribbean, is generally during the dry season from December to May for optimal weather and sea conditions. This site is particularly suitable for both divers and freedivers due to its accessible shallow areas and interesting deeper sections. Divers should focus their exploration around the 15-meter rock blocks for the most spectacular encounters with marine life.
