Why dive here
With 267+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, nurse sharks, orcas and sea turtles - Larikai Point offers some of St. Vincent's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Larikai Point offers a relaxed wall dive right off St. Vincent. We begin shallow, maybe five or six metres, with plenty of gorgonians swaying in the gentle surge. The wall itself drops to around 14 metres, and it’s a good spot for spotting some of the smaller, interesting residents – we’ve seen Shark Nose Gobies poking out from crevices and Stippled Clingfish clinging to the rocks. Visibility here can vary, averaging about five metres, so it’s more about the macro life and colourful coral mosaics than sweeping vistas. It’s a solid choice for an easy afternoon dive, especially if you’re looking for a relaxed pace.
