Summer’s Bliss is a wall dive site in Roatán, Caribbean.
Overview
Summer’s Bliss is a donor-named RMP mooring along the Sandy Bay wall. The reef at this location features a mix of hard coral species on the crest, including brain coral and great star coral, before the wall face takes over with sponges and gorgonians. Green sea turtles frequent the shallows, and banded butterflyfish pair up along the reef edge. The deeper wall hosts black coral and wire coral at advanced depths. Visibility is generally 20 to 40 meters, with water temperatures from 26 to 29 degrees Celsius.
