On this tour you will discover the wonder of Belize’s marine ecosystem. Your trip will focus on three different snorkeling locations along the reef that runs parallel to the island of Caye Caulker. In this natural haven for thriving sea life you will be surrounded by the laid-back nature of local nurse sharks, dancing coral beds, and an array of colorful fish.

Caye Caulker South Channel, Shark Ray Alley, and the Swash are popular local destinations for snorkeling. Our experienced guides will help you discover many different marine species such as parrotfish, lobsters, angelfish, tarpon, eagle rays, and many more.
