Snorkeling is fantastic with three Marine Reserves , Hol Chan, Shark-Ray Alley just minutes to the south and Bacalar Chico just to our north.

THE SNORKELING

Some of the best snorkeling in the world is just minutes away from our resort on the world's second longest barrier reef just off our Ambergris Caye location near San Pedro, Belize.

THE DIVING

When diving along the main barrier reef at Ambergris Caye, you will experience the vast canyons formed by large, living corals rising from a sandy bottom. These canyons are found just outside the reef at depths of 50 - 100 feet.
