Pompion Wall
Why dive here
With 447+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, eagle rays, nurse sharks, orcas and seahorses - Pompion Wall offers some of Caribbean Coast's richest wall diving. Water sits around 28°C.
Pompion Wall offers a nice slice of Caribbean diving off Guatemala’s coast. The wall itself kicks off around 45 feet, dropping pretty steeply, which makes for some easy depth management. Up top, we’ve often spotted schools of reef fish holding formation, and sometimes a passing barracuda in the deeper blue. Deeper, around 60-70 feet, the wall reveals more interesting finds in its many nooks and crannies: lobsters peeking out, the occasional green moray eel, and we've even watched hawksbill turtles foraging here. It’s a comfortable wall dive, good for those who like to take their time exploring the crevices.
