Hanover Parish

Hanover Parish in Jamaica sits on the island’s north coast along the Caribbean Sea. The region is primarily known for coastal sites and straightforward access from local towns and dive centers, with a mix of reef habitats and sheltered coves suitable for recreational diving. Typical conditions feature warm tropical waters, moderate visibility, and gentle currents near shore, with boat-based dives connecting to nearby reefs and shallow wrecks. The area is practical for divers based in towns like Orange Bay, Lucea, and Hopewell, offering a relaxed, mid-level diving experience tied to Jamaica’s northern offshore ecosystems.
