HALF MOON CAYE WALL
Belize
Half Moon Cay Wall is one of Belize's most popular dive sites. It is also called' 6,000 feet of vertical abyss' because of the enormous vertical drop-off.

Half Moon Cay itself is a beautiful, highly isolated island and one of the oldest protected nature reserves in Belize.
