Top Placencia Wildlife Encounters

Come explore the incredible marine life of Belize! From curious clownfish to majestic coral reefs, you won’t be disappointed. Upon arriving at our island paradise, you will learn all about this aquatic wonderland and its special rules and regulations before getting into your snorkel gear for a one-hour adventure through subaquatic realms – with your guide pointing out various species as you go. After lunching on delicious traditional fare from Belize, take some time to wander around then dive back in for another hour - plus snacks after for energy! Or if half-day is more suitable there's an option available too.

Depart Placencia for one of the best and clearest snorkeling spots on Belize’s barrier reef, the marine reserve of Silk Cayes. A licensed guide gets you there and helps you gear up to safely explore colorful coral gardens teeming with lobsters, crabs, and colorful reef fish. Refuel with a Belizean-style lunch before splashing back in at a spot famous for attracting throngs of nurse sharks, sting rays, and sea turtles.
