Turneffe Islands, Turneffe Atoll, Belize
Rendezvous Point is a wall and coral pinnacle complex on the north-western corner of Turneffe Atoll, where two reef sections meet. The reef top sits in 10 to 12 metres of water and the wall steps down past 30 metres. The wall is decorated with deep-water sea fans, large barrel sponges, vase sponges, sea plumes and rope sponges, with black coral colonies in the deeper sections. The shallow shoulder is a coral garden of brain coral, star coral, sheet coral and small pillar coral colonies. Reef life is abundant and includes schools of yellowtail snapper, horse-eye jacks, big mutton snappers, French and queen angelfish, midnight parrotfish, large groupers, queen triggerfish and large barracudas hovering above the structure. Caribbean reef sharks pass along the wall and eagle rays glide along the rim. Hawksbill turtles graze the sponges. Currents are moderate; dives are typically run as drifts along the wall. Visibility 20 to 30 metres.
