The sculptures are made from a special kind of concrete that sea creatures love to live on. Over the years, corals, sponges and tiny sea animals have grown all over the figures, turning them into living reefs. What started as plain grey statues have slowly become colourful homes for fish, sea turtles and octopuses. The art and the ocean are now growing together.
The most famous sculpture is called 'Vicissitudes' — a circle of 26 human figures holding hands on the seafloor. When you snorkel or scuba dive above them, looking down, they look like children in a ring game, their hands just reaching towards each other. Sunlight filters through the water and dances on the coral growing across their faces and shoulders.
The park was created for two reasons: it gives visitors an incredible underwater experience, and it takes some pressure off nearby natural coral reefs by giving divers and snorkellers a different place to explore. It is a clever idea — using art to protect nature. Grenada is very proud to have the world's first park like this, and it has inspired similar projects in other countries.
