Southwest Caye Wall
Dive site
A less-visited section of Glover's southern wall accessible from the research station on Southwest Caye, hosting some of the highest coral cover on the entire atoll. Scientists from the Wildlife Conservation Society have documented exceptional Acropora recovery here over the past decade, and the wall sees abundant midnight parrotfish and large green turtles.
