Snorkeling in the Caribbean Island of Caye Caulker

I love to go snorkeling when I escape to the Caribbean! My favorite place to go snorkeling is Caye Caulker, Belize.

Caye Caulker is an island about 45 minutes from Belize City by boat. There is a Barrier Reef less than one mile away from the island. Snorkeling there is awesome because inside the reef, the water is very shallo and the reef is right under your feet.

The colors are so beautiful and bright, it is also some of the clearest waters I have ever seen. It's like peering into a giant fishbowl!

The Belize Barrier Reef is definitely Belize's top tourist destination. I would recommend snorkeling to anyone because it's easy to do, if you can float you can go snorkeling! Just remember to put on plenty of sunblock because the Caribbean sun is very hot.
