​
Utila's Reef
Sitting at the edge of the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, Utila’s crystal blue waters are teeming with colorful marine life. Utila has over 100 charted dive sites which include sea mounts, shallow fringing reefs and plunging walls that circumnavigate
the Cayman Trench.
The North side of Utila is best known for its drop-offs, which are considered deep dives. The upper edge of the wall begins anywhere from 20-30 feet, with each dive site having a different topography and its own personality and marine growth. Inshore from the drop-offs, excellent medium to shallow coral reefs can be found with diving depths ranging from 20-55 feet which allows both novice and expert divers to enjoy the sites.
With water temperatures averaging 80 degrees or warmer, gentle currents and generally good to excellent underwater visibility, Utila will be a dive destination you will never forget.
The Dive Boat.
​
We-Dive offers a custom dive boat that features the utmost comfort for divers. The Miss U too is 30 feet long and 13.5 feet wide allowing a capacity of 16 divers with 42 tank racks. For comfort, we typically restrict it to no more than 12 divers and two dive masters. She is equipped with a sun canopy, ice coolers and large diving platform with two ladders for easy entries and exits. Ice water and snacks are served between dives. She is equipped with a powerful and dependable 430hp Cummins diesel engine.
Whale Sharks.
Utila is known as the Whale Shark capitol of the Caribbean. Sightings are often more frequent in the months of March-April and August-September, but whale sharks have been spotted around the island year-round. Unlike pods of dolphins, that are also frequently found around Utila, whale sharks are usually solitary. But it is not uncommon for multiple whale sharks to be sighted in a single day along the northern shores of Utila.
​
Our team of experienced boat captains and dive masters will give you the best opportunity to see and potentially snorkel with these amazing creatures. Please note that it is unpredictable and by no means guaranteed.
​
Whale sharks are the largest known fish species. They are slow-moving filter feeding specimens, found in tropical and warm oceans. They have a lifespan of about 70 years, and can grow up to 35 to 40 feet in length. Despite its size, whale sharks do not pose significant danger to humans, and it is often possible to swim with these magnificent creatures.
