About this dive site

This dive site, Land's End, is exclusively a boat dive located off the coast of Vieques Island, Puerto Rico. Divers will navigate diverse underwater terrain featuring rocky slopes leading away from the island, interspersed with sandy patches and grassy areas within a sheltered cove. The site is known for its currents, which can vary from mild to strong, catering to a wide range of diver experience levels.

The diverse habitat at Land's End, encompassing rocky, sandy, and grassy bottom, supports a variety of marine life. The grassy areas are particularly popular for sightings of stingrays and other grazing animals. While specific species beyond stingrays are not detailed, the varying terrain suggests the presence of various reef fish, crustaceans, and potentially some hard and soft corals typical of the Caribbean.

To best experience Land's End, visiting during periods of milder currents is advisable, though experienced divers can enjoy the challenge of stronger conditions. The site's maximum depth of 16 meters and average depth of 8 meters, combined with interesting topography and potential marine life in shallower grassy areas, make it suitable and enjoyable for both snorkelers and freedivers, in addition to scuba divers.
