Join us as we explore some of the best diving in the Caribbean. We’ll be diving and relaxing on a private island in Belize. We will be staying at the Turneffe Island Resort. The 14-acre private island that the hotel sits on was formed centuries ago, when a volcanic peak sank to the sea floor, leaving a crown of a coral reef ringing its perimeter. This in turn has kept growing to form an atoll of lagoons, channels, and reef that will preclude any kind of future touristic invasion. It’s perfect for guests who want to roam on the vast beaches, or couples who want some solitude. Surrounded by the the largest and most diverse coral atoll in the Caribbean. Its protected waters are home to hundreds of different reef fish. Our trip includes 15 boat dives to explore some of the spectacular dive sites in the surrounding area offering breathtaking adventures for both beginners and advanced divers. Trip includes: 7 nights accommodations at Turneffe Island Resort Round-trip Belize airport transfers 3 boat dives per day Day trip to Lighthouse Reef Atoll, Blue Hole and Half Moon Caye All meals and soft drinks at the resort Tanks and weights
