North Star

Located west of Cane Bay in the United States Virgin Islands, this dive site offers two distinct profiles: one to the east and one to the west. The east profile features sections that are nearly vertical, providing a thrilling diving experience. On the other hand, the west profile boasts beautiful spur and groove coral formations, creating a colorful underwater landscape.

Accessibility to this site is convenient, whether you prefer to reach it by boat or shore.

On this ledge, you'll have the chance to encounter a fascinating piece of history—an old anchor dating back to the 1600s or 1800s, serving as a fascinating reminder of the past.
