Moray Alley
Why dive here
With 367+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and nurse sharks - Moray Alley offers some of Abaco's richest diving. Water ranges 24-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
Moray Alley lives up to its name, a network of swim-throughs and small caves perfect for spotting green and spotted morays. We’ve often found nurse sharks tucked away in the shadows too, and the occasional loggerhead turtle cruising overhead. It’s a shallower site, good for less experienced divers or those looking for a relaxed second dive. Watch for the occasional stronger current when the tide pushes through the cuts.
