Dive-site story
Located off the southern coast of Grand Bahama, Picasso's Gallery features distinct spur-and-groove coral formations separated by wide sand channels. Massive star corals, brain corals, and sea fans cover the ridges, creating sheltered pockets and small overhangs where macro critters and juvenile reef fish seek cover. Divers frequently encounter passing Caribbean reef sharks and stingrays cruising across the sandy floor.
Well-defined spur-and-groove reef architecture with small swim-throughs and overhangs
Regular visits from Caribbean reef sharks and nurse sharks along the perimeter
Rich hard coral coverage interspersed with sprawling sea plumes and deep-water gorgonians
