Whether scuba diving or snorkelling, the Indians are a favourite for all ages and abilities! This marvellously unique rock formation, looms out of the water from a depth of approximately 10ft to 50ft and features a tunnel, which divers (with scuba equipment) may pass through to the other side. There is a spectacular variety of corals at the Indians as well as an abundance of reef fish.

The Wreck of the R.M.S. Rhone - Salt Island

Certainly the most popular and well known of all BVI dive sites, the Royal Mail Steamer “Rhone” was the setting for the hit movie “The Deep”, starring Nick Nolte and Jacqueline Bissett. The wreck itself is fascinating to explore with parts of her still intact. The Rhone foundered during a hurricane and is lying in depths from 20 to 80 feet. She is colorfully decorated by a wide variety of corals and is home to several resident barracuda, sea turtles, stingrays, angelfish, yellowtail snappers and many other varieties of fish life visit the Rhone. This is a “must see” for all levels of scuba divers!
