Scuba diving the Belize barrier reef from Ambergris Caye is an amazing way to see sharks, turtles and the Great Blue Hole.

Adventures Diving the Belize Barrier Reef

Watch as I travel to Ambergris Caye in Belize for a fun-filled week of scuba diving the Belize barrier reef! We’ll explore the Great Blue Hole and the island, coming face to face with sharks, turtles, and rays while exploring the many reefs around Ambergris Caye.

Before you watch, here’s a little background on where we’re visiting in the video! The island of Ambergris Caye is a almost totally car-free island and full of small resorts on the beach. We’ll visit one of the island’s oldest restaurants as well as getting a bird’s eye view of the blue hole from a sea plane. It’s an adventure I’ll never forget, and after you watch, I think you’ll be ready to plan a trip of your own!
