Ghostly new figures appear in the waters of the Caribbean

Story by By Tamara Hardingham-Gill, CNN •

The world’s first underwater sculpture park has just gotten a lot bigger.

Created by British sculptor and ecologist Jason deCaires Taylor in 2006, the Molinere Bay Underwater Sculpture Park in Grenada is now one of the Caribbean country’s most popular underwater attractions.

The captivating installation recently expanded significantly, with 31 new sculptures added to the site, situated in a marine protected area off the west coast of the island.

Among the new additions is “Coral Carnival,” a sculpture series based on Spicemas, Grenada’s hugely popular carnival that showcases iconic masqueraders such as the “Jab Jab,” a character with chains who is a symbol of freedom for Grenadians.

In such a short time..less than 20 years…the coral colonies are flourishing on the sculptures and marine life has new environments. I love to see this. I’m in south Florida and our efforts to keep the marine environment healthy has comes up with some unique ideas but no sculptures yet! Always learn something from your posts..🙏
