Dive-site story
Situated along the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef offshore from Puerto Morelos, Mini Wall features a continuous coral ledge that drops off to a sand channel. Divers drift along the low relief wall decorated with gorgonian sea fans, brain corals, and sponges. The gentle flow allows easy examination of crevices where marine life seeks shelter from open currents.
Low coral ridge shelter harboring morays, nurse sharks, and spiny lobsters
Expansive sea fan gardens populated by schools of grunts and snappers
Relaxed drift profile suitable for relaxed reef exploration
