Utila's Reef 

Sitting at the edge of the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, Utila’s crystal blue waters are teeming with colorful marine life. Utila has over 100 charted dive sites which include seamounts, shallow fringing reefs and plunging walls that circumnavigate the Cayman Trench. The North side of Utila is best known for its drop-offs, which are considered deep dives. The upper edge of the wall begins anywhere from 20-30 feet, with each dive site having a different topography and its own personality and marine growth. Inshore from the drop-offs, excellent medium to shallow coral reefs can be found with diving depths ranging from 20-55 feet which allows both novice and expert divers to enjoy the sites. With water temperatures averaging 80 degrees or warmer, gentle currents and 100 feet of underwater visibility, Utila will be a dive destination you will never forget.

 

 

House Reef 

The beauty of the house reef is beyond compare. Its shallow fissures with sandy bottoms and beautiful purple fan coral gardens just at our doorstep will tantalize shore divers. This reef is truly world class and has been dubbed by many visitors as their favorite "house reef". It has many ideal features that create a natural environment for shore diving, night diving and snorkeling excursions. A gradual descending beach leads to the wall, a 130-foot drop-off, a mere 150 yards from shore. The underwater terrain is suited for multi-level dives due to the two descending shelves. Plenty of unique landmarks make the area easy to navigate. The coral is plentiful, healthy and vibrantly colored. We have a big variety of Elkhorn coral and giant pillar corals. There are several sea mounds at 120 feet that are spread out at the breaking point between the coral shelf and the sandy seabed.

This was a fantastic dive trip. The accommodations were amazing and located directly on the water. The house reef was fantastic and allowed for many dives between the organized boat dives. The food was plentiful and delicious and the owners and staff of Utopia are a great group of people that were a lot of fun to hang out with between dives and at meals. I went on an organized trip with a large group that had the entire resort to ourselves. An incredible amount of fun at a fantastic resort in a gorgeous location.

The service was incredible. All of our gear was taken care of between dives and ready for us whenever we wanted -- both for organized dives and for house reef dives. I am still in contact with the owners on Facebook and cannot wait for a return trip when my schedule permits.
