Mexico Rocks Day Sail Shared Guided Tour
Overview
Available languages
6 hours
Mobile ticket
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.

5.00We had Anna & Charlie. They were very personable & knowledgeable. They both knew how to keep a light playful mood. Having excellent jokes, keeping a drink in hand, and making sure whatever we needed was handled. They were very helpful to point out things like sharks, stingrays, puffer fish, turtles and other native marine life. I was extremely satisfied with our snorkel time and our new boat mate family.
Amazing Belizean Experience

5.00My family of 4, including 2 older teens, had an amazing time today with Anna, Charlie and Eric! The catamaran was perfectly appointed to meet our needs, from a bathroom, to endless drinks (with and without alcohol). We all had the best snorkeling experience we've ever had. Mexican Rocks was a superb place to see turtles, corals, and so many beautiful fish. The ride there and back was comfortable and relaxing, and lunch was delicious. Our favorite part was swimming with the sharks and rays! Thank you so much for a perfect outing. Absolutely worth every penny.
What an experience!! Catamaran Belize is amazing!

5.00Catamaran Belize was awesome! The boat was large enough to easily accommodate our group of 12+ with room to maneuver and was well kept. We stopped at a few different snorkeling spots and saw sharks, sting rays, and even a couple dolphins on the way there. Charlie and Anna were knowledgeable, hospitable and quite funny. I will definitely book with them again the next time I visit Belize!
