Tankah II - Yucatán Cenotes

West Bank, often bundled with its Soufriere neighbors like Scotts Head Pinnacle, is a distinct site for good reason. We’re talking about a standalone pinnacle, really. It maxes out around 23 meters deep, which means plenty of bottom time to take two laps around it, something we often do. You'll navigate walls, crevices, and sloping coral shelves, often spotting barracuda patrolling and yellowcheek wrasse flitting about. Visibility tends to be excellent, regularly hitting 24 meters, giving you clear views of nurse sharks lounging and turtles cruising by. This is a site that suits divers looking for a relaxed exploration of a vibrant Caribbean pinnacle, a nice complement to some of Dominica’s more dramatic drops.
