CoCo View, Roatán, Bay Islands, Honduras
Front Porch is the house reef dive directly off the dock at CoCo View Resort on Roatán's south shore and one of the most-dived sites on the island because the resort encourages unlimited self-guided diving 24 hours a day. From the dock divers descend onto a sandy channel bordered by a healthy fringing reef in 8 to 12 meters that runs out to a wall dropping past 25 meters. The reef is heavily decorated with brain coral, lettuce coral, sea rods and pillar coral, and the shallows host a vibrant community of spotted drum, juvenile fish, French and queen angelfish, blue tangs and creole wrasse. Resident green moray and hawksbill turtles are regulars, and night dives reveal lobster, octopus, basket stars and sleeping parrotfish. Currents are negligible and visibility runs 15 to 20 meters; the easy access makes the site a favourite for training, refresher dives and photography.
