About this site
Eel's Garden lies off Guanaja, one of the Bay Islands of Honduras in the western Caribbean, an island group known for its fringing reefs along the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef system. Dive sites around Guanaja are typically reached by short boat trips from the island's small coastal settlements. This reef site has turned up a mix of reef fish and invertebrates, with divers reporting bluehead wrasse, yellowhead wrasse, slippery dick, French and white grunt, longspine squirrelfish, stoplight and striped parrotfish, along with giant anemones and mustard hill coral on the bottom.
