The reefs along Lighthouse Reef Atoll are some of the farthest flung in Belize, but make an easy day trip from the Turneffe Islands. At this particular stretch north of Long Caye, divers descend to the top of the reef at about 30 feet, where large groups of parrotfish graze on algae fields. The dive quickly drops off once over the edge of the wall, and a diverse explosion of soft coral makes this one of the most brillant, and most popular, dives in the area. Snapper, grouper, and angelfish crowd the wall as well, while jacks and barracuda prowl in the depths.
