The Arches
The Arches and the Caves are incredible diving sites that feature outstanding rock structures; divers in these areas can sometimes see things like rays and sharks. The Caves are about 10 minutes away from shore and consist of two caverns connected by a narrow tunnel. The Arches range from 40 ft to 60 ft, with a noticeable drop-off at the 40 ft mark. You’ll easily be able to swim through The Arch here right alongside schools of purple and yellow fairy basslets. Advanced divers can take advantage of wall explorations with many ledges and overhangs.
The Arches is an exciting dive site situated around the Negril area in Jamaica. This site is open for divers all year round due to the warm air and sea temperatures. It takes its name from the reef of an arch-like coral formation suitable for divers of various levels. Sometimes this spot is made into a drift dive from one mooring buoy to the other. This place also features a sunken plane that was sunk intentionally and today is generously covered with coral and populated by various marine life.
