    Cayo Forster offers a classic Caribbean reef dive off the Corn Islands. We often find nurse sharks resting in the sandy patches here, along with a good scattering of lobsters tucked into the reef crevices. It’s a pretty gentle dive, suitable for newer divers or anyone looking for a relaxed exploration rather than strong currents. Expect healthy coral formations and plenty of smaller reef fish.
