Why dive here
With 266+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and nurse sharks - Tu Sab offers some of Soufriere-Scotts Head Marine Reserve's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Tu Sab, inside Dominica’s Soufriere-Scotts Head Marine Reserve, is a decent entry-level wall dive, especially if you're with a bigger group or still finding your fins. It’s pretty sheltered, so we don't usually worry about strong currents here. While it doesn't have the big, bold colors of Scotts Head Drop-off just around the bend, Tu Sab shines when you slow down and look into the cracks. We’ve found plenty of lobsters and crabs tucked away in the crevices – bring a torch, you'll want it for peeking into those hidey holes, especially for the resident yellowhead jawfish. Maximum depth is a forgiving 21 meters, and visibility often sits around 25 meters. It’s a nice, easy dive that’s also a solid pick for a night out.
