Underwater Art

The secluded beach at Dragon Bay

      When we arrived in Grenada this year, the first thing we did was sight see.  But not just any old usual touristy stuff.  No- we had read about a marine park with underwater sculptures located near Moliniere Point and decided that we just had to investigate it.
      The park features a number of life sized pieces by Jason de Claire Taylor that are artistically positioned in the crags and crevices along the rocky bottom. While the sculptures were essentially beautiful, many had a hauntingly eerie effect on us.  See for yourself…

These are just a few of the pieces.  You’ll have to come down to Grenada and see the rest yourself!
