Shoal Bay diving - enjoy distinctive feeling

What a great dive Angel Reef is! This spot ranks among the favorites for both snorkeling and diving, its name is due to the large number of Angel fish seen at this dive site. This site has 10-12 feet high sea whip and huge sea fans. Lots of Stingrays and Turtles are also seen here. Lobster Reef takes its name from the Caribbean lobster that can be found moving about over this hard coral reef. Most reef sites in Anguilla are made up of Soft coral however this is a huge horseshoe shaped plateau that starts in 25ft and goes to a drop off at 45 ft, from there we hit a sandy bottom in 85-100 ft of water. On the edge of the drop-off we are able to see Nurse Sharks under the ledgers. Crystal Reef is a dive favorite for those who like to see eels, arrow crabs, cleaner shrimp, red claw shrimp and lobster. This site offers good safe diving with only a short boat ride. Large Elkhorn coral formations can be found; these are seen on the edge of the drop-off at 25 ft where it drops off to an 80ft sandy bottom. Beacon Reef has steep cliffs and caves as a backdrop to the reef site. The caves only go back about twenty feet so they are not diveable. What we have here though is a very wide plateau at about 22 feet; it has trenches that run at 90 degrees to the shoreline until they meet the drop-off about twenty feet apart. You can follow these to the drop-off and slide down the reef to about 70 ft. The trenches are the perfect place for searching for those critters that love to hide. Captain Turtle was named 'Captain Turtle' for two reasons. The first reason being that you can often see turtles here. The second reason in that the owner of Le-Bar loves to dive this site and people sometimes call him Captain Turtle because of his love of the sea. If you get a chance ask him about the medallions that where on his bar at Sandy Ground! The plateau has lots of places for Nurse Sharks to sleep so we always look for them when we are there. Soft coral fans lead the way to the drop-off. This dive can range anywhere from 20ft to 65ft. A nice easy dive that entertains the novice to the most experience diver.
