DELETED
Hey Jorge,
Try Kiddle Bay, it's just past your favorite, Salt Pond. My Hubby and I stay in a villa just up the hill from there and we haven't bothered with a dive boat since we dove there. Lots of cool stuff to see and swin through on the west bank. You can drive right down to the water, unload your gear and pull your car off the beach so others can access it. It's pretty deserted most of the time.

scuba dive from beach
jorge,
another easy shore dive that might be interesting would be the left side out of little lameshure around to lameshure. get there early and you can park near one of the picnic table for set up, inflate your bcd and snorkel out about 50 feet to left then start down. i've only snorkeled and free dived out by rocks but as you approach the end to go around to lameshure you'll have plenty of depth and i believe plenty to see. my only large octupus and eagle ray sigthings have been in that area.
i've done some free diving at the indians and have always thought that would be a great dive. too far to swim from rams head and bvi customs might pull you over and ask for your passport. but still bet a great boat dive.
my buddy and i got our padi cards in 1985 but I haven't dived in several yrs and due to some health issues & properly won't again. max depth about 100ft at grand cayman on night dive from shore out from turtle farm. did it to say we did but we preferred to give out of air without thinking about bt, so we normally stayed under 40 feet. Back in the early 90's, our favorite shore dives were the grottos at eden rock and the upper end of the wall out from the turtle farm on gr cayman, especially at night.
to me a good scuba dive is the only thing more refreshing than a return to stj! enjoy!
