Diver's Notes

L’Abym lives up to its name (a Creole word meaning the deep or the abyss). Here, wall diving abounds and scuba divers will delight in the mix of suspension feeding corals reaching out to meet the larger pelagic species that cruise the reef. Located along the north side of Soufriere Bay, L’Abym makes up the eastern edge of Soufriere crater. At approximately two miles long, divers can make dozens of dives along the wall and never repeat a site.
