HOL CHAN & SHARK RAY ALLEY HALF DAY TOUR
Departure
9 AM and Return at 12 NOON
Your
first stop on this trip will be Hol Chan, which is Mayan and means
"little channel". It is Belize's first underwater park, a protected
area since 1986. Because it is protected, there is more marine life
in this small isolated spot, than anywhere in the whole country.
Your second stop is Shark Ray Alley. This unique site developed when
fishermen came inside the reef to
pause
and clean their catch, preferring this spot because there are never
any waves. It looks quite like a big aquarium with no walls around
it. Numerous sting rays and nurse sharks hang out here, waiting for
boats to get their share of sardines our Dive master brings for
them.
Nowhere
else can you get this close to marine life. A must visit snorkel
site similar to Stingray City in the Cayman Islands. This site has
double the action though as in addition to the Stingrays there are
also resident nurse sharks as well as coral formation and a variety
of other fish life. Shark Ray Alley is located just five to ten
minutes south of Hol-Chan marine reserve.
