The MV Bianca C., a 184-metre Italian ocean liner, caught fire and sank just off St. George's in October 1961. It now lies between 30 and 50 metres below the surface — or deeper in parts — and is one of the most impressive wreck dives in the Caribbean. The upper sections of the ship are accessible to advanced open-water divers, with penetration dives for those with proper training and equipment.
Most dive operators on Grenada run regular trips to the wreck. The Carenage is an easy reference point since the ship sank within sight of the harbour. Visibility here is typically excellent, and the wreck has had sixty years to develop into an artificial reef, with coral and sponge growth covering much of the superstructure. Grouper, moray eel, and occasional turtle sightings are common.
