Why dive here
With 361+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, bull sharks, eagle rays, nurse sharks and seahorses - ROSA B offers some of Ocho Rios's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest August, September, October.
The Rosa B, sitting just off Ocho Rios, offers a straightforward wreck dive that's pretty accessible. Sunk back in '73, this old fishing vessel has become a home for all sorts of reef fish over the years. We've seen schools of snapper darting in and out of the broken hull, and plenty of sergeant majors circling the superstructure. It's not a huge wreck, so you can take your time exploring the bits and pieces, often finding a moray eel peeking from a dark crevice. It’s a good spot for newer wreck divers or anyone looking for a relaxed exploration with a decent amount of fish life.
Safety Notes
Wreck site - avoid penetration without wreck diving certification. Watch for sharp metal and entanglement hazards.
