- What should you expect to see when staying at a diving resort in Roatan Hondoras in 2024? Shallow reefs, reef walls, artificial reefs and shipwrecks, as well as a recent coral die off due to an unusually hot summer in 2023.

I was blessed to dive Roatan in the mid 1970’s. It truly was a beautiful beautiful dive. The resorts were a lot more rustic than in this video. Thanks for the memories! Howdy from SE Texas 🤠
I bet the reefs looked very different during that time, probably a lot more pillar coral as well as fields of staghorn
@@scottbauerbelow yes they did! We purchased a home in Belize in 2002 and have dove the Blue Hole many times and the changes to the barrier reef have been unbelievable.
top quality footage!
Thank you!
I went to Roatan in 2022 and had such an amazing time. It was my first international dive trip. The staff at Coco view was amazing, and they went above and beyond. So far, I have been on four international dive trips.
Very cool, i thought it was a great place!
Love CoCo View! The production value of this video is amazing. Very well done. The narration and pace are spot one and great transitions ! Awesome job. Hi Gringo!
Thank you very much, ill let gringo know you said hi lol
Great Video!!
Very nice ! Great photography ! Thanks
Thank you!
Beautiful dive. Out of all the dive videos, I have yet to see black coral. My uncle gave my mom black coral before it was illegal to pick them, and that was decades ago. I just moved out of hawaii, and I gave the coral to my dtr. I wasn't going to take the chance to pack it in the POD. Its more sentimental than the value of it.
Thank you! I thought the grove of black coral on the wall was interesting as well, I haven’t seen too much of it elsewhere
Really good video..captures the feel very well. Great macro shots, especially of the Peterson's shrimp.
Thank you! I was enjoying the use of my Sony 90mm macro lens!
Thankyou! Was just dreaming about Roatan.
Dreaming about going back myself : )
This is a wonderful video and Amazing footage!
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed it!
Amazing micro video of rhe sealife.
Thank you!
Awesome video Scott! I’m curious to see if creation has the ability to recover from the effects of these events!
Keep em comin!
Thank you sir! Will do and much appreciated
Awesome video Scott. Were headed there in three weeks so I shared it with our group. What camera did you use to film this? See you at Spring Lake.
Absolutely! Hope to catch you in San Marcos! I was shooting with a Sony A7IV on my wide shots and a Sony a6700 with the 90mm macro lens for my macro shots…
I went to Roatan in 2018 and then recently this May 2024.
Sadly the biomass is no longer the same. During my first trip, you can see so many fish, wall dives were literally full of all kind of marine animals.
Sadly this last trip, there was barely any fish, the night dive was the same, quite bare. I did 5 days of diving on only on of those days we saw significant amount of sea life but we had to go farther.
Spoke to some other divers and they said the same 😢
I heard the same. So sad.
Were you just down there at Cocoview about two weeks ago? And was the guy with doubles a new diver doing the orientation dive on Sunday?
Yeah, we were there in early May
@@scottbauerbelow I believe I saw your dive buddy doing his/her orientation dive. It is the first time I have ever seen anyone diving doubles there...Great video by the way! Which editing program do you use?
