This dive site, Over Heat, is one of Roatan's most beloved and relaxing dive spots, famous for its vibrant marine life. Its name originates from a historical anecdote where an old resort boat would regularly overheat over this very patch of reef. Divers can kick back and enjoy a gentle drift along the reef, with navigation often guided by the current itself, making for an effortless and enjoyable experience.
The site truly "explodes with life," especially when a slight current enhances activity. Divers can expect to encounter a variety of captivating marine creatures, including graceful turtles, robust groupers, vibrant creole wrasse, and distinctive triggerfish, amidst a healthy coral reef ecosystem.
The best time to experience Over Heat is when a mild current washes over the site, bringing the reef to life and providing an effortless drift dive. This site is excellent for both divers and freedivers due to its comfortable maximum depth of 20 meters and average depth of 10 meters, making it highly accessible and enjoyable for all skill levels. Remember to simply relax and let the current guide your exploration.
