More information about Caribbean diving
The Blue Hole in Belize is one of the world’s most famous dive sites, renowned for its massive underwater sinkhole that stretches over 400 feet deep and 1,000 feet wide. While the dive is primarily known for its geological features, such as large stalactites and an eerie, deep blue descent, it doesn't offer the same vibrant marine life as other dive sites in Belize. Instead, divers may spot sharks like Caribbean reef sharks, blacktips, and occasionally hammerheads at depth.
