Wreck Alley (Cooper Island)
18° 22.5′ N · 64° 30.9′ W · approximate
Four purposely sunk wrecks lying in a row on sand beside a mini wall: the Marie L, the Pat, the Beata and the Island Seal, with garden eels, stingrays, schooling fish and the occasional shark.
Practical
Rough placement only: operators locate Wreck Alley off Cooper Island without coordinates; this point is off the island's southwest shore and must not be used for navigation. Depth 50 to 85 ft, intermediate to advanced (Dive BVI, Sail Caribbean Divers); swim-throughs and hatches. Thumb Rock, a boulder rising from 60 ft to within 15 ft of the surface with creole wrasse, lobster and tarpon, lies just south of the Marie L and Pat (Dive BVI). Use NPT dive moorings or go with an operator.
