Canouan Dive Sites (Airport Reef, Glossy Point, Petit Canouan)

12° 42.4′ N · 61° 21.4′ W · approximate

The tourism authority names three main Canouan dive sites: Airport Reef, Glossy Point Reef and Petit Canouan, on an island ringed by one of the Caribbean's longer barrier reefs.

Practical

Coordinate is derived: Doyle's waypoint just NW of Glossy Hill, near the Glossy Point and Airport reef area; exact site positions were not found, so dive with a local operator. Strong currents run around the south end of Canouan and the Petit Canouan site is exposed and remote.

Organised dives from Canouan
