About Raggedy Cay
Raggedy Cay is a west-end Utila wall dive reached by boat, with a shallow start over sand before the reef face drops away into deeper water. It is a strong choice when you want a classic wall profile, colorful coral, and rich marine life without a complicated reef map, but the site rewards disciplined navigation because the mooring sits well away from the wall.
