Seaquest Deep

Seaquest Deep is one of those sites we always hit up when we're in Roatán, despite the "Deep" in the name being a bit of a misnomer given the 20m max. It’s popular, sure, but for good reason. What we really love here is the sheer density of small, unusual critters in the sand. You’ll be finning along, eyes peeled for a Yellowhead Jawfish peeking out from its burrow, and then suddenly you're spotting a Warteye Stargazer buried, just its eyes twitching above the sand. We’ve had some cracking dives just hovering over the sandy patches, finding Sharpnose Pufferfish trundling by, or watching a pair of Shark nose gobies tend to their home. Visibility here is consistently good, usually around 20m, which helps immensely when you're trying to pick out a tiny Mimic Blenny. Our favourite tip for Seaquest Deep? Go slow. Really slow. Bring a good macro lens if you're into photography, because the real show here is in the details, not the big stuff. It’s perfect for divers who appreciate the subtle beauty of sand dwellers and aren’t afraid to spend twenty minutes admiring a well-hidden flounder.
