About Over Heat
Over Heat is a friendly Roatan reef site with a shallow top, sandy patches, cobble areas, and a wall that adds structure without turning the dive into a technical outing. It is the kind of site that works for beginner scuba, casual snorkeling, and relaxed guided dives, while still rewarding more experienced divers with colorful corals, turtles, squid, morays, and the occasional ray. A slight current can move along the reef wall, so it is still worth treating as a real ocean dive rather than a pool-like shore splash.
