Hol Chan Marine Reserve
Hol Chan is Mayan for "little channel" and is a natural break in the reef, which has always been a very productive fishing area with abundant marine life. It is open to the sea beyond the reef, so allows marine creatures to travel from the outside of the reef to the inside and vice versa. It became the first marine reserve in the entire country of Belize back in 1987 and this have led to the species to re-generate and the corals of growing unharmed. This snorkeling area has the greatest variety of marine life and coral, compared to being an "underwater zoo" - you have the chance to see all kinds of corals, fishes and even sea turtles! Over 160 species of fish and forty types of coral have been recorded in the area. The snorkeling here is minimum 45 minutes.

Such a great excursion! The catamaran was fabulous! and the crew, Captain Charlie and Anna were wonderful! Lunch was delicious and the rum punch was flowing! HIGHLY recommended!!! I could do this trip every week! Especially loved sailing back under the night stars after a spectacular sunset!

Hands-down, the best snorkeling tour I've ever been on not to mention the most comfortable boat ride and the most fun staff. Anna and Charlie made the day wonderful for my family of 4. They took extra care in making sure my kids were comfortable before they got in the water. The boat was equipped with couch like chairs to lean against and the food and drinks were delicious and plentiful. The water was crystal clear and the amount of wildlife we saw under the water was incredible! Definitely book this excursion. You will not be sorry.!!!

Amazing experience, would highly recommend! Charlie and Anna are awesome. My husband wasn’t too excited for this excursion but by the end he said he is glad he did it and we will definitely be booking another tour next time we go to San Pedro.

We had a great trip with Catamaran Belize. Mexico Rocks was a great snorkel spot, lunch was delicious, and Charlie was a fantastic guide (and bartender)! Really appreciated getting a link to all the photos they took, too!

It was amazing! The snorkeling was top notch. The guide and captain were attentive and friendly. Drinks were flowing and food was so delicious ! You have a good amount of time at caye caulker to explore. You'll be in the sun for a long time, bring a shirt to help protect your skin. Also make sure to bring cash for Caye Caulker only some places took card.
