Reef

Death – also a shallow reef area with lots of juvenile reef fish. Just like diving in an aquarium! If you want to go deeper, there is a nice slope to go down. Brought to you by Dive Experience, Christiansted boardwalk.

Wildlife Preserve Zone – Protects nesting female sea turtles using beaches in East End, Issac, Jack and Boiler Bays to lay eggs.
