Ambergris Caye provides easy access to the Belize Barrier Reef, one of the largest and most impressive coral reefs in the world. This tour will allow you to fish and snorkel in an endangered but thriving ecosystem.

Level of difficulty: Low – prior fishing skills not required

UNESCO categorizes this reef as a World Heritage Site. This is due in part to the fact that the Belize Barrier Reef is part of the habitat of several endangered species including manatees, whale sharks, and crocodiles. In addition, the Belize Barrier Reef is the home of a bustling population of intensely colorful tropical fish.

The reef is just a quarter of a mile from Ambergris Caye’s shore. This tour comes with trolling and spinning tackle, and an experienced fishing guide. Your guide will bring you to superior fishing spots where you’ll be able to reel in tasty specimens from sustainable species of fish. You have the chance to catch snapper, barracuda, grouper, king mackerel, and jack. When you’re ready to take a break from fishing, your guide will provide snorkeling gear so you can get a closer look at the reef.

At the end of the day your guide will clean your prize-winning catch. Ask your hotel kitchen if they can cook your fish, or grill it yourself at a beachside barbecue. Your fresh fish will be one of the most authentically Belizean meals of your trip.
