Mexico Rocks Day Tour
What your day looks like
The Northern coast of Ambergris Caye has amazing blue waters and beautiful views along the way. While we start our morning sail, we serve you fresh fruit and meat-pies. Our first snorkel stop is Mexico Rocks, that in the end of 2015 became a part of the Hol Chan Marine Reserve, to protect its rich marine life and precious corals. We then continue to our favorite spot - a shallow area right by the reef, that is just like a natural pool (great for non-swimmers as well)! Here we make a break to relax in the shallow warm water, while the crew prepares our famous Belizean buffet. It includes traditional dishes like stewed chicken, rice and beans and our Captain's secret BBQ fish. After lunch we return South doing a second snorkel stop at Tres Cocos.

The journey, in full
Mexico Rocks: Mexico Rocks is an area of huge coral heads scattered all over this snorkeling spot - making it look like a Mexican sombrero, as some say the name comes from. Since Mexico Rocks became a part of the protected Hol Chan Marine Reserve in November 2015, it’s become famous for its prominent amount of marine life, and the coral formations have been flourishing. Tres Cocos: South of Mexico Rocks closer to town is Tres Cocos, a small concentration of marine life along the reef where a large amount of fish can be seen. This area is an entrance for large reef fish that usually lurk around these areas in search of food. Natural Pool: This is an exclusive stop that only we make - we have the advantage of only drafting 2 feet which makes it possible to anchor in such shallow water, and we are also blessed with a Captain that knows the spots where nobody else goes. This is a shallow area close to the reef and except for spectacular views, it is also a unique setting and a refreshing break. The water is shallow and calm, making it perfect also for non-swimmers.
