The third cast from Galletti's mould, standing on the Carenage waterfront with arms raised over the harbour. Not a dive, but a compulsory stop for anyone chasing the Christ statues, and it's the emotional key to the Bianca C wreck offshore. Given to Grenada by the Costa Line in gratitude after Grenadian boatmen rowed out and saved nearly every passenger from the burning liner Bianca C in October 1961. Often wrongly listed as submerged, it has always stood above water, watching the harbour its story came from. Anchorage: St George's Carenage / Port Louis Marina, step ashore. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally.
