This dive site at Cane Bay Beach in the United States Virgin Islands is easily accessible from the north shore road. Divers can kick out about 200 yards or 20 meters to reach the buoy at a depth of 25 feet or 7.5 meters. From there, they will encounter a steep slope leading to a vertical wall that plunges down to over 2,000 feet or 600 meters. This stunning dive offers the possibility of observing reef sharks at the drop off, so divers should remain vigilant. If you plan on spearing lionfish, exercise caution.
