Why dive here
With 168+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, orcas, sea turtles, whale sharks and pufferfish - Old House offers some of Roatán's richest diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
Old House on Roatán's south side is a solid drift dive when the currents are running. We generally find a good mix of pelagics cruising by the wall, along with plenty of reef fish sheltering in the crevices. It’s a good spot for intermediate divers comfortable with some movement, and if you time it right, you can really fly along. Watch for the occasional eagle ray gliding past in the blue.
