Underwater Sculpture Park

Boats drop you over the shallow patch reefs at the inner edge of the bay, where sea plumes, sea rods and a mosaic of hard and soft corals cover the bottom in a few metres of water. Red banded parrotfish, defensive damselfish and reclusive jawfish hover above the sloping wall, and the sculptures sit beyond it at a range of depths, with 12 metres the deepest of them.

The park is usually worked at the end of a Molinere Bay dive rather than the start, explored while the safety stop runs, so the figures fall in the shallow, unhurried part of the profile. The site is visited daily by scuba divers, snorkellers and glass-bottom boats, so expect company underwater and boat traffic on the surface above you.

Molinere Bay is also dived as a straight reef site, with a profile running from about 3 to 18 metres and taking in the wall and the wreck diving on the same stretch of coast, so the sculptures are often one leg of a longer dive rather than a site of their own. The whole bay lies inside the Grenada Marine Park.

More than 100 concrete sculptures now stand on the bay floor. The best known is Vicissitudes, a ring of 26 children standing hand in hand and facing outwards at about 4 m (14 ft). Nearby are The Lost Correspondent, a lone figure at a typewriter at about 7 m (22 ft), The Fall From Grace, a man on a bicycle at about 6 m (21 ft), and The Unstill Life at about 8 m (25 ft). Grace Reef's 16 figures lie at about 4 m (12 ft) and the 18 heads of the Tam CC Project at 2 m (6 ft), within reach of snorkellers.
