Explore the pristine Northern coast of Ambergris Caye, with amazing blue waters and beautiful views along the way. While we start our morning sail, we serve you fresh fruit and homemade Belizean meat-pies. In the end of 2015 Mexico Rocks became a part of the Hol Chan Marine Reserve, to protect its rich marine life and precious corals. We do our first stop for snorkeling there and then continue to our favorite spot - a shallow area close by the reef, that is just like a natural pool (great for non-swimmers as well)! Here we make a break to relax in the shallow warm water, while the crew prepares our famous Belizean buffet on-board. Traditional dishes like stewed chicken and rice and beans with our Captain’s secret recipe BBQ fish! After lunch we return South doing a second snorkel stop at Tres Cocos. Open bar with local rum, vodka, gin, soft drinks and juices is included. Try the specials, rum punch and "panty rippers"!

Mexico Rocks

Mexico Rocks is an area of huge coral heads scattered all over this snorkeling spot - making it look like a Mexican sombrero, as some say the name comes from. Since Mexico Rocks became a part of the protected Hol Chan Marine Reserve in November 2015, it’s become famous for its prominent amount of marine life, and the coral formations has been flourishing.

Friendly staff, great snorkeling, good food, and lots of alcohol if that is what you are looking for. If you are interested in a "sailing" experience, this is not the charter for you. It is operated with a motor. They did "raise" the sail on the way back, but it basically luffed the entire way and the boat moved extremely slow. If we had known this, we would have done the less expensive motorboat tour again. It went to the same snorkeling sites. There were other sail boats out when we were that were actually using sails, so they do exist.
Long day, lots of sun and snorkel, great guides!

These guys took great care of everyone on board. We stopped at multiple locations for some really great snorkel tours. We split into small enough groups to where we felt very connected to our guide. There was unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks available as well as a delicious local Belizean lunch served. The only warning I would give is that much of the boat is not covered from the sun so be sure to bring your wide-brimmed hats and apply lots and lots of sunscreen!
Great all inclusive tour!

Great tour for people who want a mix of snorkeling and chilling on a boat. Food was filling, open bar was good, guides were funny and good at pointing out sea life. Definitely a nice mix of swimming time and relaxing time.
Fun and snorkeling in the sun!

We had a great trip to Mexico Rocks for snorkeling, swimming and a day of sun! We would highly recommend this trip! Raoul and Anna were our guides and they were awesome! They took such great care of us and were such good guides for our snorkel. Would highly recommend a day on the water with this group!
