Long Caye Wall

★★★★☆ (514)

A beautiful wall dive on Glover’s Reef within the Lighthouse Reef Atoll. The wall does not disappoint with beautiful, healthy coral growth, giant sponges, and tons of marine life to see.

You’ll see typical Caribbean life like nurse and reef sharks, possible eagle rays, turtles, stingrays, and lots of fish: snapper, angelfish, grunts, parrot fish, and grouper.

Long Caye Ridge (★4.5)

A beautiful site located in the Lighthouse Reef Atoll accessible only by boat. Beautiful, healthy coral formations with tons of marine life to see.

Half Moon Caye Wall (★4.7)

Many divers consider Half Moon Caye Wall to be the best dive site in all of Belize. With excellent visibility, consistent and diverse wildlife sightings, and beautiful coral this dive never disappoints. Many diver operators choose this dive as the second dive following the Blue Hole.
Aqualung

Long Caye Aquarium (★4.6)

This is a great little wall dive with the reef starting in just 20 feet of water (good for snorkelers) but then drops off into hundreds of feet deep. The visibility is great, and there is much to see!
Mares

Great Blue Hole - Belize (★4.6)

The Great Blue Hole sits just off Lighthouse Reef in Belize and is one of the most famous marine sinkholes in the world. It is 407 feet deep, with many stalactites to be seen. This is an advanced dive due to the depth and seemingly bottomless hole. It is easy to get too deep too fast, so watch your gauges!
