Why dive here
With 491+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and eagle rays - The Indians offers some of Salt Island & Cooper Island's richest diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
The Indians, just off Salt Island, offers a gentle introduction to BVI diving, especially if you’re keen on exploring some interesting rock formations. Four distinct pinnacles break the surface, hinting at the dramatic wall below that drops from three meters down to around ten. On the shallower side, we’ve often drifted through a coral garden that’s perfect for spotting soft corals swaying in the gentle surge, and we love the little swim-through – it’s a fun, easy navigation. Look out for snapper patrolling the deeper wall and the occasional moray eel peeking from a crevice. It’s a site that suits newer divers or those who prefer a relaxed drift and an easy profile.
