Utila Scuba Diving Travel Tips

By Linda Samuel

  • Shine a flashlight on the Black Coral Wall, west of Laguna Beach Resort. After dark, basket stars, octopi, and toadfish emerge from the wall's nooks and crannies.
  • Catch a glimpse of whale sharks in the waters off Utila. Divers know it's the best place in the world to spot the giant fish.
  • Spend US$30 for a single, one-tank dive and discover sea horses, pipefish, and peacock flounders beneath the surface.
