    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Abaco’s Atlantis Road follows a sandy bottom channel, running parallel to the reef at about 12 metres. It’s a gentle drift dive, perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed experience. We usually spot nurse sharks napping in the sand and green turtles grazing on the seagrass. Expect schooling grunts and snapper hovering over the coral heads that dot the channel.
