This trip is a must by all means. On your first dive you will have the opportunity of a life time to dive the world’s famous Blue Hole. The limestone stalactites are some of the largest in the world. Experience the thrill of seeing Reef Sharks and Bull Sharks following your ascent to the surface from 130ft down. The second dive of the day is at one of the world’s most pristine reefs – the “Half Moon Caye Wall.” This dive’s highlights include sheer vertical walls that start at depths of 35ft and amazing swim-throughs that lead you to the edge of the abyss. Following the second dive you will visit the island of Half Moon Caye for a lunch break. There will be plenty of time for a short walk over to the Red Footed White Faced Boobie Bird sanctuary established by the Audubon Society. The third dive is another wall dive called “The Aquarium” at Long Caye. The crystal-clear, blue water has an abundance of colorful sponges, corals and marine life such as Reef Sharks, Dolphins and Turtles.
