Marine Adventures
Underwater Worlds
The planet's finest reef system
The Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere. Stretching 190 miles along the coast, it encompasses hundreds of cayes, three offshore atolls, and the legendary Great Blue Hole — a 300-meter-wide, 125-meter-deep marine sinkhole visible from space. Whether you're a certified diver exploring the cathedral-like chambers of the Blue Hole, snorkeling with nurse sharks at Shark Ray Alley, or swimming alongside whale sharks at Gladden Spit between March and June, Belize offers marine encounters that are unrivaled in the Caribbean.
