Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Red Slave
Red Slave is the last reasonable dive site on the Southern end of the island. It is more of an advanced dive due to its proximity to the point, so special care must be taken.
Of the two sets of Slave Huts, (White and Red), Red Slave is the most Southern, just 3.3 km West of the Willemstoren Lighthouse.

We wanted to revisit this site to see if it was a good as we remember it. We were lucky this time that conditions were calm as the rocky entry can be uncomfortable. The reef begins at 40 feet, so is a good spot for a deep dive followed by a shallower one. Save your air and kick out to the reef before descending. Red slave rekindled our rememberances of it. Passing schools of Black Durgons, French Grunts and Yellow Goatfish kept us company. The numerous sponges make this site very colorful and the reef is so steep it is almost like diving a wall. As we were waiting out our safety stop a Hawksbill turtle came cruising by. Diving here is delightful.
