West End Wall
Roatán wall dive with coral, drift current, and big fish.
Boat dive off Roatán's West End/West Bay side; the wall starts shallow and usually runs as a gentle drift with a pickup at the end.
About West End Wall
West End Wall is a Roatán wall dive where a shallow reef top drops into a long coral-and-sponge wall with ledges, canyons, and plenty of fish life. Most dives run as a gentle drift or short boat pickup, and the site is popular because it combines clear water with big views into the blue. Expect turtles, rays, groupers, wrasse, jacks, and the occasional shark if the day is right.
