Utopia Village Sandy Channel Reef Cam – Utila, Honduras

This camera is installed 320 ft from shore at a depth of 20 ft, in a sandy channel leading to the reef wall that drops 120 ft to the ocean floor. Special things to keep a look-out for here include Eagle Rays, Stingrays, Moray Eels, Turtles, Sharks and various kinds of Snappers and Groupers.

Utopia Village is located on the south shore of Utila, the smallest of the Bay Islands, off the northern coast of Honduras in the western Caribbean. It sits on a white sand and coral beach, surrounded by green jungle, turquoise waters and the beautiful Meso-American reef that comes right up to its shore. Before Covid-19 it was the #1-rated dive resort on Utila, but since then it has been refocused to be a permanent home for our staff and their families, as well as a base for local marine research and conservation non-profits.

Watch rays, sharks, eels, and tropical fish glide through this thriving sandy channel and coral ecosystem in real time. The camera captures the living reef in its natural state—a window into the vibrant biodiversity of the western Caribbean's Meso-American reef system. Learn more at explore.org.
