Why dive here
With 449+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and eagle rays - TYMIL offers some of Virgin Gorda & Anegada's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
The Tymil isn't deep, barely breaking the surface in places, but don't let the 2-meter max depth fool you. This isn’t a leisurely snorkel; it's a genuine wreck site, an old yacht that went down back in '74. What we love about it is how accessible it is, even for newer divers getting their fins wet on a wreck. The structure itself is well-broken now, draped in sponges and soft corals, making it a home for sergeant majors and small snapper. You’ll weave around hull fragments and maybe even spot a shy nurse shark tucked underneath a larger piece of debris. It's a relaxed dive, good for taking your time and really observing how the sea reclaims things.
