Barrier Reef Diving:
The walls around South Water Caye are amongst the best in Belize. From right in front of the caye to approximately 8 miles south extends an underwater cliff face. This wall starts at between 35 to 65 feet and drops off into the abyss. Turtles and eagle rays are the most common large animal encounter. One dive would be done in the morning and one dive after lunch picking dive sites that suit the experience level of the divers. Generally the first dive would be about 70 ft. deep and the second one about 50 ft deep. Dive site names include The Abyss, Trick Ridge, Black Beauty, Paradise View, Long Reef.

All dives are drift dives, where the boat follows the divers. The dive master carries a marker buoy for safety. All guides are licensed and experienced.
