Snorkeling at Shaka Caye

Belize Snorkeling Tours

There aren’t many places in the world where you can swim with stingrays, turtles, nurse sharks, and dozens of schools of colorful fish. The Belize Barrier Reef is one of the world’s best places to snorkel because of the crystal-clear water and thriving coral reefs. And Shaka Caye is located right next to this amazing destination.

Shaka Caye offers group snorkeling tours to the Barrier Reef.
These can be booked individually or as part of a package.

"The resort is clean and spacious. We snorkeled, kayaked, had a sunset cruise, massages and even took a trip to a near by island. It can’t imagine a better place to relax. The pictures do not do it justice."
