Our first trip to Coz is winding down. Came down with a cold/ fever the night before the last day so had to cancel the diving. :-(
Diving was good but all current, all the time, not my style. Current is not strong but doesn't help with finding the small stuff. Only been diving (not counting the lake) at Roatan and the differences are interesting ...
Coz - more current
Roatan - more grouper
Coz - more nurse sharks, queen triggers, and spotted trunk fish
Roatan - more macro stuff (only found two flamingo tongues at Coz)
Roatan - night dives reveal more sea cucumbers, basket stars, urchins
Turtles, barracuda and other fish seem to be statistically the same.
Coz - way more dive boats on an area (southwest / west side of island)
Not saying one is better than the other just different. Good diving either way!!
And my wife learned to dive just prior to the trip and got to see her first turtle in the wild!
