| Jamaica - the Caribbean's third largest island after Cuba and Hispaniola (Dominican Republic and Haiti) - is a large aquatic menagerie of exotic fish and rare coral formations. The islands of Jamaica are each unique in offering underwater treasures to divers who travel for miles to challenge this massive undertaking. Some of the best scuba diving experiences are encountered in the protected waters of Negril, a super-sized pool that lays claim to nurse sharks, a 50-foot tugboat, and two wrecked Cessna planes. Wreck and reef diving, beyond 100 feet, abound on Jamaica. Spectacular discoveries, including U.S. naval shipwrecks and old artillery, can be spotted underneath Kingston. |
