Access
English (Translate this text in English): Located on the North shore of Guana Island, access is by boat only. Anchoring is very difficult, so dive is usually done by live boat drop-off and pick-up.

Additional Information
English (Translate this text in English): Grand Central is the only serious cave/cavern dive in the BVI. Whether you call it a cave or a cavern is a question of semantics - it runs about 200 feet in, and some kind of ambient light is available throughout because of a sink-hole to the surface near the middle. But it would be very difficult to exit through that, so the dive is best regarded as an out-and-back penetration. Lights are mandatory, although the dive is usually made without guidelines. The entrance to the cavern is a bit of a squeeze.
The dive is comparatively shallow, and mostly rocky, so risk of silt-out is small. Marine life in the cave is quite limited, but as of 2009 there was still a decent sized Goliath Grouper living in the cave.
