WORLD'S FIRST UNDERWATER SCULPTURE PARK

 Molinere Underwater Sculpture Park

The Molinere Underwater Sculpture Park is a collection of ecological underwater modern art. It is located in the Caribbean ocean off the west coast of Grenada, West Indies. It was created by a British sculptor Jason de Caires Taylor. It is the world's first underwater sculpture park which was opened for public viewing in May 2006. Jason de Caires Taylor is a fully qualified diving instructor and underwater naturalist. With over 17 years of diving experience, Taylor is an award winning underwater photographer. As a diver, he appreciates the sea and believes humans have a natural calling to the water. The sculptures showcased under the sea are made from marine grade cement, sand and micro-silica. He installed cement figures onto the ocean floor, mostly consisting of a range of human forms, from solitary individuals to a ring of children holding hands, facing into the oceanic currents. It is now listed as one of the Top 25 Wonders of the World by National Geographic!
