Why dive here
With 476+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, dolphins, eagle rays and humpback whales - DAISY offers some of St. Thomas & St. John's richest wreck diving. Water sits around 27°C.
We've spent a few hours on the Daisy, and it’s a pretty solid wreck dive off St. Thomas. This old motor vessel, about 36 meters long, ran aground years ago and now rests upright at 23 meters. What we really like about the Daisy is how much of the original structure remains – you can still make out the bow and stern, and even some of the cargo holds. Schools of grunts and snapper hang out in the shadowy interiors, and we’ve seen barracuda lurking around the mast. It’s an easy dive for anyone comfortable with a bit of depth, and a good spot if you’re keen on exploring a proper ship rather than just scattered debris.
