About Long Caye Ridge
Long Caye Ridge is a boat-accessed reef ridge on the western side of Long Caye in Lighthouse Reef Atoll. Its shallow coral heads, sand fingers, and drop-off give the site a broad, open feel without making it a demanding dive on calm days. Divers usually find healthy coral, sponges, and a steady mix of reef life, with squid, tarpon, jacks, rays, turtles, and occasional reef sharks adding interest. It works well as a relaxed scenic dive and can be especially rewarding when you slow down for photos or night-life watching.
