The reef is much more than just a travelers attraction, it’s a mecca for sea life and keeps large waves at bay, dampening shore erosion and protecting little Belize from some of the effects of hurricanes. Proof that sometimes the innocuous can be essential!
Belize is home to over 300 small islands and since we’re shelling out numbers over 500 species of birds including seabirds. Many of these islands are part of or bordered by the Barrier reef. Charles Darwin would have been just as impressed by the diversity of sea life on our tiny reef islands.
Snorkeling and sometimes scuba diving will make your eyes hosts to a spectrum of natural colors and formations, as we all know, sea critters like to be pretty vibrant.
Bird watching through the mangrove patches and fly fishing on the shallow shoals are some of the most popular activities on our atolls, and if you just want to go swim in a place you didn’t imagine could be real then you need not look any further.
This itinerary offers a mix of adventure, relaxation, and cultural immersion, allowing you to fully experience the beauty and diversity of the Belize Barrier Reef through island hopping.
