Caye Caulker attractions


Caye Caulker attractions

  • The Forest Reserve covers the northern 100 acres of the island. It's mostly dense mangrove forest. The local Audubon group sometimes organizes morning birdwatching tours.
  • Caye Caulker Marine Reserve, also known as the local reef. The local reef is close enough that you can see the waves breaking on it from the island itself.
  • Hol Chan Marine Reserve, (6.4 km (4 mi) south of San Pedro, Ambergris Caye), +501 226-2247, . Has been protected for longer than the local reef, and so it usually has more mature marine life (i.e. bigger fish) as well as more people, though it's never terribly crowded. It's further away than the local reef.
  • Shark and Ray Alley. Tour operators will toss food into the water in order to attract nurse sharks and southern sting rays. You can swim with them, and even touch them if you're quick. Nurse sharks can bite, contrary to myth, but they are also territorial so these sharks are very used to humans.
  • The Blue Hole is a 40 m deep circular hole in the ocean, with many fish, sharks, and corals. The Blue Hole is possibly the most famous dive site in Belize, even though it's nearly straight down. It's at least an hour boat ride away from Caye Caulker.
