Protected Area
Sandy Island-Oyster Bay
Why dive here
With 292+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, humpback whales, nurse sharks and orcas - A World Adrift Underwater Sculpture Park offers some of Carriacou's richest drift diving. Water sits around 28°C.
We love a sculpture park, and Carriacou’s ‘A World Adrift’ is a proper standout. Just a five-minute boat ride from Hillsborough Bay, it’s shallow, maxing out at 8m, which makes for long bottom times and great natural light for photography. Jason deCaires Taylor’s sculptures here are inspired by the local boat-building culture, and they truly give you pause – there’s a quiet, reflective feel to drifting through these submerged figures. You’ll spot plenty of marine life making homes in and around the art. We've seen glasseye snapper schooling inside crevices, and the occasional hogfish rooting around the bases. Keep an eye out for the smaller stuff too, like flagfin blennies perched on the textures or tiny gobies darting into the sand. Visibility hovers around 17m, usually, so you get a clear view of the art and the life it now supports. It’s perfect for a relaxed dive, maybe a long snorkel, or just a chance to slow down and really observe.
Safety Notes
Drift dive - carry a surface marker buoy (SMB) and stay with your group. Brief the current direction before entry.
