Getting around Grenada - Dive Grenada
Purple Rain Creole WrassePurple Rain Dive site GrenadaNear Grand Anse Bay, St Georges, is the reef and drift dive known as purple rain.
This is because of the huge number of Creole Wrasse that descend in the waters in a way more than reminiscent of raindrops.
Two ridges running parallel to the coastline house the reef, and at the site the life is astonishing, from sea worms and pipefish, to turtle and nurse sharks, this site provides some of the best example of Grenadian marine life.

The area has a fantastic diversity of both hard and soft corals, which are complimented by glorious barrel sponges.
This dive site has something for everybody and can be an excellent drift dive when the currents are favourable.
The reef splits into two and offers flexible diving routes.
This one you must do again and again to appreciate it fully.

The reef top teems with life and there are millions of micro fish living in the reef.
From the hundreds of fish you can expect to see here, some will include moray eels and sea worms, pipefish, parrotfish, angelfish, glassfish, and trumpetfish, as well as turtles and nurse sharks.
Fabulous coral and sponges.
Plethora of Caribbean reef fish plus large barracuda.
A lovely drift.
