Emerald Gardens St Croix USVI
★★★★☆
(14)
Emerald Gardens is neighbor to Cane Bay’s The Wall dive site. Its also home to Seabiscuit, carousal horse, which lies at a depth of 30ft/10m. Head north to a slope to 60ft/18m then The Wall begins and drops past recreation limits! (about 13,000 ft /3962m deep!)
Look for juveniles in the shallows, and keep an eye out for turtles, sharks, rays and lots of fish in the deeper areas. Please do not feed sharks with speared lionfish
