Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Sint Eustatius in the protected marine park, Blair's Reef consists of coral encrusted rock formations and spur-and-groove ridges that rise from a sandy seabed. Divers drift along low-profile ledges where large barrel sponges and sea fans shelter small reef dwellers, while open-water visitors often cruise the perimeter.
Extensive patch reef system adorned with large barrel sponges and soft corals
Frequent encounters with resting nurse sharks tucked beneath undercut ledges
Expansive sandy corridors frequented by southern stingrays and flying gurnards

Seasonality
Diving is reliable year-round, though late summer and autumn carry increased regional storm risk.
