DAY THREE - THE DIVES
THE WRECK OF THE MV VERONICA L
| |
45'/14m
This coastal freighter, which is 25 metres long and is fully intact except for the bridge section, is one of our favourite dive sites. She was placed in her final resting place on Upper Boss Reef in 2003 after being moved from St Georgešs Harbour. As this is quite a shallow wreck, it can be enjoyed by all levels of diver. She has probably the largest diversity of marine life in such a small area of all our dive sites. As you descend, there will be patrolling barracuda, horse-eyed jacks hunting amongst the brown chromis & creole wrasse. In the engine room, you will occasionally find a massive green moray eel. Look closely on this dive site for many marine life treasures. We often use this wreck as our night dive location which is a truly fantastic scuba diving experience here in Grenada.
Formerly at the site of "Twin Wrecks", the Veronica L was moved to make way for the new cruise ship terminal. It was loaded onto a barge and was dropped back upright. It now has a nice reef nearby.
