Usually we only list shore diving sites that can be accessed by car.  You'll notice there is not a road to be seen on De Palm Island!  De Palm Slope is listed as a shore dive because there is a nice passenger ferry that leaves from the mainland for an easy 800m ride.  You may be charged extra for your gear.

A 100m South of the Southern 1A 4A intersection, turn West for 300m.  Then turn left for 500m.  Then turn right before the Spanish Lagoon.  Wind your way to the coast for 400m.  You may park in the large dirt lot.  The ferry will be down to your right.

De Palm Slope

As of August 2011, you must pay De Palm Island either $99 for a full day package or $89 for a half day package that includes snorkeling gear, a ride to and from the Island, drinks and all of the CRAPPY food you can eat.   I would not recommend spending money to go to this snorkel site. I am surprised that people still go there. We did see big blue parrot fish and some barracuda. However, I felt that the reef was 'dirty' and damaged.  It was NOT worth the $99.  My suggestion, go to Mangel Halto down the road.
