We start with snorkeling at Hol Chan and Shark Ray Alley. Hol Chan has the largest variety of species to be seen in the area and is often compared to an aquarium, while at Shark Ray Alley you get to experience a close encounter with nurse-sharks and stingrays. Watch from the boat or swim with them! We serve our famous *Premium* Belizean buffet on-board. Traditional dishes like stewed chicken, rice and beans, our Captain’s secret recipe BBQ fish and the premium additions corn on the cob and skewers. After lunch, we stop at the neighbor island Caye Caulker for approx. 1 hour of free time to explore the island, followed by a relaxed sunset cruise back to San Pedro, with ceviche served.

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.

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.

Anna and Charlie were the absolute best and when we come back and if we do this again, we would want them for sure. The service they provided was excellent as well as their personalities. Anna captured really great candid pictures of our group, the rum lunch packed a punch- lol. They were attentive to all of our needs. We wanted lunch at Chef Kareem’s in Caye Caulker and they were able to pre- order for us before our arrival. Our group enjoyed the experience immensely. Thank you
