Long Caye Aquarium (The Aquarium)

Off the western shore of Long Caye, a flat reef top of brain coral, sea fans and sea plumes gives way to a wall that drops suddenly at about 11m. Named for the density and variety of fish and invertebrates on the shallow reef. An easy, colourful dive often used to close out a Lighthouse Reef day.
