★★★★★ Odyssey (Wreck)

110 feet under the surface of Roatan you can find the Odyssey Wreck. 300 feet long, 50 wide and, 85 feet tall, this wreck will impress. Sunk for divers in 2002, the wreck was donated by Hydes of Hybour.

El Aguila (The Eagle) is Roatan’s most popular wreck dive and is located just off Baileys Key and Anthony’s Key Resort. It was a concrete freighter and sunk off Utila. The wreck was raised, stripped out for diving, and then sunk again by a consortium of dive shops on the island in 1997.

★★★★★ Hole In The Wall

A very unique dive site, Hole in the Wall is West End’s version of Delicate Arch. It is located just to the south/west of the boat channel at Mangrove Bight. The site that is marked on the Marine Park map is actually the Mangrove Bight buoy; there is no buoy for Hole in the Wall.

★★★★☆ Fish Den

Fish Den is another of our favorites. The mooring is set on a pillar of coral which itself is set in a square-shaped cut in the reef wall. The top of the pillar is at about 20 ft / 7 m and drops down to about 40 ft / 12 m. The square hole in the reef slopes down to 60 ft / 18 m as it joins back with the main wall.

Aqualung

★★★★☆ Pillar Coral

Another distinctive dive site, Pillar, as its name suggests, is a coral spire just off of the reef wall. The mooring is on the top reef at 35 ft / 10 m, but a very short swim takes you over the top of the spire which tops out at around 90 ft / 27 m. This site descends well beyond the recreational limits so watch your depth closely.

★★★★☆ The Bight

The Bight is famous for the huge barrier reef and the variety of marine life. It is a shallow dive with a maximum depth of about 20 meters/ 80 Ft. Turtles and grouper are common in this area, and this dive site is suitable for beginner divers as well. Visibility is normally around 25 or more meters!

Mares

★★★★★ Canyon Reef

Canyon Reef is near the Mangrove Bight buoy where there are lots of canyons, swim-throughs, and cuts to explore. The wall bottoms out at 55 ft / 16 m, so everyone can play here, even with only an open water certification. It is a great dive site for everyone.

★★★★★ Moonlight

Moonlight is a very popular dive site. It is great for diving along the top of the reef. There is also an amazing wall. The sand patches under the mooring lines are great for teaching.
