Mary's Place
One of Roatán's most famous dive sites, with canyons formed by volcanic rock fissures covered in sea fans and black coral.
Mary's Place lies near French Key on Roatán's south shore. It is known for a series of coral reef fissures about 30 meters deep. Divers swim through narrow channels whose walls are covered in sea fans, sponges and black coral, and groupers and sea turtles are common. It is an advanced dive site. Go with an advanced certification and a local dive shop, and only when sea conditions are good.
