Why dive here
With 378+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, bull sharks, dolphins, eagle rays and hammerhead sharks - Crickozeen Cut offers some of Turneffe Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Crickozeen Cut gives you a drift dive feeling without the crazy current. It's a nice easy shot along a coral wall, often with trumpet fish hanging out perfectly still amongst the sea fans, trying their best to disappear. We’ve seen damselfish and parrotfish everywhere here, doing their essential work keeping the reef tidy. Keep an eye under the ledges for spiny lobsters. If you hit this spot during a summer full moon, you might get lucky and catch Creole wrasse aggregating to spawn – a truly impressive sight. It’s a solid, enjoyable dive for anyone who likes a relaxed pace and plenty to observe.
