  2. 4 of us are interested I was checking out taking water taxi to San Pedro the get local to take us out snorkeling to hol chan and shark alley

    Hello all,

     

    I've been reading up some on the snorkeling options in Belize and it looks to me like the "best" snorkeling in the area is the Hol Chan Marine Reserve.

     

    However, I am taking a cruise on Carnival and no "ship-based" excursion is offered to Hol Chan (or even to Caye Caulker!).

     

    Therefore I was thinking of trying to get a private tour to the Hol Chan Reserve and spend the day there, since the ship is in port in Belize for quite a long time that day (9 am to 6 pm).

     

    I see that some people on the message board have pointed to an option to get a flight to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye; however, I am a little nervous about taking a flight in such a small plane.

     

    I see that there are tour groups that offer boat tours to Caye Caulker (like Coral Breeze) -- and in fact even stop at "Shark Ray Alley" which is technically IN Hol Chan. But from what I hear, Zone A of Hol Chan is only like another 20 minutes north. Since I have all day, I figure there has to be some tour company able to take me another 20 minutes north in that amount of time.

     

    Does anyone know of any tour companies who will go the extra few minutes north to the Hol Chan reef?

     

    Or can I call Coral Breeze and get a "individualized" tour and ask them to take me all the way to see Hol Chan?

     

    I'm not interested so much in seeing sharks and rays, I want to see coral and fish mostly. So I would rather skip Shark Ray Alley and instead go see Zone A of Hol Chan which has more reef and coral.

     

    Any suggestions?
