Eleuthera Diving: Wrecks, Reefs, Walls and Drifts
Why dive here
With 271+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, lemon sharks, nurse sharks and seahorses - Eleuthera Diving: Wrecks, Reefs, Walls and Drifts offers some of Eleuthera & Harbour Island's richest wreck diving. Water sits around 26°C.
Eleuthera offers a diverse range of dives, making it a reliable choice for a few days in the Bahamas. We've found the wrecks here are particularly engaging, with structures like the *Devil's Backbone* often hosting schooling fish and the occasional reef shark. The walls and drift dives deliver consistent action, especially with turtles cruising past and bigger pelagics often making an appearance in the blue. While not the most dramatic diving in the Caribbean, it’s a solid pick for both new divers and those looking for relaxed, rewarding dives.
