Caye Verte, off Sandy Island, is a straightforward reef dive, topping out at 17 meters. It's a good choice for newer divers looking for an easy drift over coral and sand patches. You'll often find a decent variety of smaller reef fish here, along with the occasional turtle cruising by. We'd suggest it for a relaxed second dive.
