Boat-based West Caicos wall dive with a reef cut, dense coral top, and undercuts that reward steady buoyancy.
About The Gulley
The Gulley is a West Caicos wall dive where a cut in the reef opens onto a dense coral top and then drops into a vertical wall with undercuts. Divers come for the reef split, the clean wall transition, and the black-coral and sponge structure that lines the drop-off. It is a boat dive for experienced recreational divers who want a classic wall profile with strong coral character and a controlled pace.

Scuba Diving
Typical profile described is entering through the reef cut and descending to the wall around 85 ft, with the wall starting near 50 ft.
