Sec Grand Case, just off Sandy Island, is a lovely introduction to Anguilla’s diving. At a consistent 13 metres, it's really comfortable for newer divers or those who just want a relaxed potter around. We’ve always found the hard corals here in good shape, providing plenty of nooks and crannies for things like juvenile drum fish and the occasional snoozing nurse shark tucked under an overhang. Look out for the garden eels poking out of the sandy patches. It’s a gentle drift on most days, making it an easy second dive or a good spot to warm up your buoyancy skills.
