  http://www.scubadivingbelize.com/index.php?page=atolls Half Moon Wall This site has a wide variety of habitats to explore. The sand flats where your boat will moor are covered with beds of turtle grass and a colony of garden eels. As you swim past the turtle grass the sand will slope towards the reef where you can find southern stringrays feeding on the mollusks that are buried in the sand or simple resting. The reef here has many swim-throughs and gullies. It is topped with numerous healthy corals, sponges, sea fans and is teaming with a large variety of reef fish. As you swim through the cuts, overhangs and swim-throughs you will reach the wall at 70 to 80ft. Here you will find a sheer face covered with gorgonians and colorful sponges. Don’t forget to keep an eye out to the deep for if you are lucky you will spot an eagle or manta ray, sharks and other large pelagics. When you reach the turtle grass and sand flats at the end of your dive you will find parrotfish, triggerfish, hogfish, goatfish, bar jacks and gray angelfish all feeding in this area. The garden eels can be frustratingly shy but are worth the effort as the remerge from their holes and can make a great photo opportunity.
