This dive site, Dip n Scrub, is accessed from a mooring in the British Virgin Islands. Divers will explore a vibrant wall that stretches eastward, gently descending from 25 feet (8 meters) to 60 feet (16 meters). The site is characterized by its impressive underwater topography, featuring large mushroom-shaped pillar coral formations that create an engaging landscape for exploration.
The marine life here is abundant and diverse. Divers can expect to encounter large schools of colorful Creole Wrasse, Blue Chromis, and Sergeant Majors. Keep an eye out for various species of parrotfish, including Queen, Princess, Striped, Stoplight, and Redband. The site is also home to occasional large lobsters and the majestic nurse shark, adding to the excitement. The vibrant soft corals further enhance the beauty of this underwater ecosystem.
Dip n Scrub is an excellent dive destination year-round, offering calm conditions and good visibility typical of the British Virgin Islands. Its relatively shallow maximum depth of 16 meters and rich marine biodiversity make it highly suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers. Snorkelers will also enjoy the vibrant reef top. This site is particularly recommended for beginners due to its gentle profile and ample marine encounters.
