Why dive here
With 266+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and nurse sharks - Sea Fan City - Dominica offers some of Soufriere-Scotts Head Marine Reserve's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Sea Fan City, a relatively new site in the Soufriere-Scotts Head Marine Reserve, offers a solid wall dive that feels a bit different from its neighbors. Dropping in, we trace the wall's contours westward, keeping an eye out for residents like the Candy Basslet or a lurking Flamefish. The return journey is the real draw here, shallower on the shelf where massive sea fans dominate the landscape, interspersed with patches of staghorn coral. It’s an easygoing dive, topping out at 19 meters, with plenty of Black Durgons and Bermuda Chub in the shallows. Good for those who appreciate a relaxed pace and a healthy dose of coral formations.
