Big Rock

★★★★☆ (1,883)

A very popular site with both divers and students, A large sandy patch running from 15ft all the way to 130ft. A beautiful wall dive for all with lots to see.

An ideal location to find probably the largest seahorse in Utila and it sits in the open in the sand between 18-24 meters hidden in the massive number of garden eels.
