    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Vincent's, over on the north-west side of Turneffe, offers a classic Belizean wall dive. The wall starts shallow, around 12 meters, and then just drops away into the blue. We've often seen Nassau grouper hugging the wall, and if you keep an eye out into the deeper water, a passing eagle ray or a school of mackerel might cruise by. The shallower sections are pretty, with plenty of gorgonians and sea fans swaying gently. It’s a straightforward dive, good for anyone comfortable on a wall, and a solid choice if you’re looking for those larger pelagics.
