Glover’s Reef Atoll Dive and Snorkel With Seahorse Dive Shop

Glover’s Reef Atoll Dive Sites

Home to about 700 patch reefs in the lagoon and surrounded by 50 miles of sheer drop-offs, which start from 25 feet and drop straight down to about 2,700 feet, you will find that most of the reefs are virtually uncharted, untouched, and visibility is usually over 100 feet.

It might take you a bit longer to get there but the diving is defiantly worth the long ride. Once there, you will soon realize that there are a countless amount of dive sites to choose from. But,  some of the most popular ones we visit are:

Long Caye Wall

Located just about 200 meters from Long Caye, this wall is simply spectacular. You will find every kind of Caribbean coral and colorful sponges on this dive. Mantas are often seen along the wall as well.

The Aquarium

The name of this dive site says it all, diving here can sometimes feel like you’re actually in an aquarium.  It offers crystal clear waters and huge colorful schools of creole wrasse and yellowtail snappers hanging out at cleaning stations. You might also run into the occasional dolphins and turtles,  as well as huge numbers of horse-eye jack and black durgons as you venture off the wall.    Most of the activity here is often found early in the morning or late in the day, there we normally make this site our first dive or last before we embark on our journey home.

Manta Wall

Named from the nearby  Manta Resort, it is known for its swim troughs created by the massive star, boulder star, and mound corals. Here you will find nurse sharks lurking, and huge groupers, almost as big as yourself.

The Pinnacles

One of the more unique dives you can find at Glover’s Reef Atoll, it features about three dozen or so giant coral pinnacles that rise up from about 100 feet to about 10 feet.  The fish life and overall site are comparable to any Glover’s Reef Dive.
