Scuba Diving Tours in Caribbean
Belize may be a small country, but its scuba diving packs a real punch. The clear blue waters are warm year-round, there are over 400 islands to explore, and the Belize Barrier Reef passes right alongside the coastline. The reef is rich in marine life and coral, making diving in Belize a pretty unbeatable experience.
The most well-known of the many dive sites is the Belize Blue Hole, a huge sinkhole that’s almost perfectly round. With a deep blue center encircled by turquoise, it’s stunning to see this natural wonder up close. The Belize Blue Hole is thought to be one of the world’s largest sinkholes too, so make time to visit for one of the best scuba diving adventures near Belize City.
There are plenty of other sites for scuba diving in Belize, many of which can be visited on expert-guided scuba diving tours. Hol Chan Marine Reserve is a popular place to explore, with Shark Ray Alley tours providing easy access to a large group of stingrays, who are gentle and friendly enough to pet.
But that’s not all. With over 500 species of fish calling Belize home, you’ll likely see something different on every dive you complete. This variety, along with access to some great discovery courses, makes Belize an exciting place to begin your diving journey. But equally, for more advanced divers, there’s a whole host of more challenging dive sites to explore.
