Toffee Canyons

Toffee Canyons is a solid choice just off Ambergris Caye, especially if you’re keen on a more relaxed dive. The name fits, with the coral formations creating these winding, tawny pathways that feel a bit like swimming through a dessert landscape. We love how the sunlight filters down into those canyons, dappling the sand and making the gorgonians glow. This site caps out around 19m, so it’s forgiving on air and great for less experienced divers or anyone just wanting a longer bottom time without the pressure of depth. You’ll weave through swim-throughs carved by the reef itself, often finding green turtles munching on seagrass, quite unbothered. We’ve seen bonefish schooling here, and the yellowline gobies are always a treat to spot, darting around the massive starlet coral. Visibility hovers around 19m, which is good enough to appreciate the scale of the coral structures. It’s a gentle drift, typically, making it easy to just relax and watch the parrotfish nibble away at the brain corals. Dive here mid-morning; the light plays best then.
