GRENADA / Caribbean Reef Buddy
Caribbean Reef Buddy is a non-profit organisation based on the island of Carriacou (near Grenada) in the West Indies. Our ongoing projects include reef monitoring, turtle monitoring and invasive lionfish monitoring & culling, as well as community outreach programs to raise awareness of the importance of conservation.

There are opportunities to get hands-on experience with our monitoring projects, gain PADI diving certifications and specialty training, build your diving experience with daily boat dives, and immerse yourself in the friendly island community of Carriacou.
