Meet at our dock located directly in front of the Belize Chocolate Company at 8am for an ontime departure at 8:30am. You can also input Ridge and Reef Adventures in google maps and it will take you to our office for a short Check in process. Get geared up and depart for Hol Chan Marine Reserve where you will enjoy approximately 45 minutes to an hour of snorkelling and exploration of this vibrant underwater world teeming with flora and fauna.
After enjoying this beautiful site we cruise over to Shark and Ray Alley. Test your nerves and swim with nurse sharks that range between 3 and 12 feet in length. Keep an eye out for a variety of species, such as horse-eyed jacks, snappers, and much more. This experience lasts anywhere from 20 minutes to 45 minutes, depending on you.
Hop aboard once again and make your way to Coral Gardens. Snorkel above vast and breathtaking coral formations that serve as a home to many species of fish, including loggerhead turtles.
Continue to the North Channel, near Caye Caulker. Here, you can sometimes catch a glimpse of manatees, nurse sharks, and other beautiful flora and fauna. Snorkel for about 30 to 45 minutes. If you are unable to see manatees here, you will be guided to another location in search of these gentle giants.
We usually break for lunch at about 12:30pm then allow you some time to explore the island of Caye Caulker. We then advise and meet at the Caye Caulker Split at about 2:30pm.
Once everyone is on board we make a stop on the leeward side of Caye Caulker to feed large but gentle fish called tarpons or silver giants. Visit a sea horse sanctuary to look for these small but beautiful sea creatures and see southern stingrays.
Depart Caye Caulker area at around 3:15 to 3:30pm for the 35 minute boat ride back to San Pedro.
