Why dive here
With 267+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, nurse sharks, orcas and sea turtles - BOSCO offers some of St. Vincent's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
The wreck of the BOSCO, a yacht sunk by fire in 1979, sits upright at 18 meters, making for a relaxed dive that’s perfect for those newer to wreck diving. She’s not massive, but the fire damage means she’s pretty open, so you can easily peek inside the cabin and engine room. Over the years, the metal has become a home for all sorts of critters. We’ve spotted moray eels tucked into crevices, plenty of schooling fish swirling around the mast, and often a few curious trumpetfish nosing about the deck. It’s a gentle introduction to wreck exploration in St. Vincent.
