| In Honduras there is the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) with the open-water courses in the off-season. There is also two 5* PADI shops and Bay Islands College of Diving. Whale sharks have recently become protected in Honduras and Utila is on their main migratory path. A scuba diving vacation with Deep Blue Utila will provide you the opportunity of seeing even snorkeling with these creatures. There is a full range of PADI courses from Open Water to IDC Staff instructor, TEC diving and great fun diving for already certified. Most popular diving cities are Calvin's Crack, Spooky Channel, and Docs Elbow. Connie's Dream...On the other hand, Belize is also diving paradise. There is the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, which is a main attraction in Belize. There is three separate diving destinations for three different types of diving. The Underwater world is filled with shallow gardens of corals, steep drop-offs speckled with colorful fish, vibrant sponges and other marine life. The diving on the outer atolls is the best in Belize. Blue Hole is the biggest attraction for diving. It is a perfectly formed deep hole through lighthouse reef. Hol Chan Marine Reserve is Belize's most popular National Park, which is also diving center and first marine park. South of the Rocky Point is one of the largest sea turtle nesting beach. Currents can be strong, so pay attention. |
