Why dive here
With 192+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, lemon sharks, nurse sharks and sea turtles - Tuckle Bucket Canyon offers some of Ambergris Caye's richest diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest August, September, October.
Tuckle Bucket Canyon serves up a classic Belizean wall dive, often with a gentle current pushing you along. You'll drift past overhangs and small swim-throughs, keeping an eye out for resident nurse sharks tucked away and the occasional eagle ray gliding by. It’s a good spot for a relaxed drift, suitable for divers comfortable managing their buoyancy near a wall.
