Why dive here
With 213+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, eagle rays, nurse sharks and sea turtles - Pelican Wall offers some of Lighthouse Reef's richest wall diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Pelican Wall gives you exactly what you’d expect from a Lighthouse Reef wall dive: a sheer drop-off into the big blue. We like to drift along, keeping one eye on the wall for the usual suspects – plenty of black grouper tucking into the crevices and barracuda hanging in the current – and the other eye scanning the deep water. That’s where you’ll spot the eagle rays gliding by and, if you’re lucky, a Caribbean reef shark making a pass. It’s a classic Lighthouse dive, best for those comfortable with deeper profiles and open water.
