Scuba Diving & Instruction
Roatan is famous for its variety of coral, which
you can see from only a short boat ride away. Thousand-foot walls festooned
with deepwater gorgonians, coral gardens and barrel sponges, pillar coral,
60-foot deep ledges crowded with blackcap basslets, mini-walls clustered
with bluebell tunicates, pinnacles overgrown with azure vase sponges,
and shy indigo hamlets peering from niches are all aspects of diving in
Roatan. You will see spur/canyon configurations, coral gardens, ledges,
overhangs, caverns, and vertical fissures. Miles of reef leave diving
uncrowded and many areas have yet to be explored by visitors. Large groupers
and moray eels are a common sight. On any given dive, one might see a
hawksbill turtle or spotted eagle ray gracefully gliding by. The reefs
are so extensive that it would take months of daily diving to see each
known segment. Sound exciting? Come and explore the reefs yourself. Roatan's
divemasters and instructors are waiting to show you their favorite dive
spots.
