Why dive here
With 391+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, humpback whales, octopuses and seahorses - Big Whale East Reef offers some of Andros's richest reef diving. Water ranges 24-31°C, warmest July, August, September.
Big Whale East Reef offers a straightforward Caribbean coral dive off Andros. It’s a good spot if you’re looking for a relaxed exploration of typical reef inhabitants without strong currents. You'll likely see parrotfish browsing the corals, snapper schooling in the cracks, and a scattering of smaller reef fish. We'd suggest it for divers seeking a calm, easy dive rather than big pelagic action.
