Snorkelling And Diving

Belize is one of the easiest ways to experience this underwater world as the cayes are so close to the reef.  The reef here is most diverse offering shallow waters for beginners to deeper drop offs for the more experienced.  The outer atolls are superb for divers, offering some of the best diving in the world with the blue hole being a particular favourite. The reef is home to an enormous array of fish from small and colourful to larger more intimidating ones as well being home to a variety of rays, sharks and eels.
 
Within South America there are few places that offer such opportunities, diversity and ease with which to see such an underwater world.  One of the best is Fernando de Noronha off the north east coast of Brazil, a national park island with excellent diving, though expensive to reach.  Alternatively there are the shallows off the island of Morro de Sao Paulo in Brazil, though more rock than corals.  Alternatively the Los Roques archipelago off the Venezuelan coast can offer a glimpse into this secret world.

There are numerous possibilities for snorkelling and diving here from steep drop offs to shallow waters.  We have literally been along the majority of this reef and so can talk through with you about where is best for what you want to do.
