BELIZE IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK! SCUBA DIVING - Caye Caulker, Belize, Blue Hole 2019 - 4K
Hey buddies! Belize is not what you think! If you're not part of the SCUBA diving community, you've probably heard a lot of things (or very few) about Belize - not likely good ones. It is indeed a place with many challenges in terms of their economy and social services. But it's not all bad! In fact, they have a LOT of absolutely gorgeous natural wonders, some of which that you'll get to see in our video. We spent our time in wonderful Caye Caulker (pronounced Key Cocker) and this place magical. The island slogan is GO SLOW! and not only do they live it, but they'll make sure you adjust to the local speed even when walking on their streets. Come with us to see this place from above and Anda de Wata! Join us into the Great Blue Hole

SWIMMING WITH SHARKS | Caye Caulker, Belize
Welcome to the clearest water in the world! On the small island of Caye Caulker on Belize's Caribbean coast, I swam with manotees, sharks, sting rays and of course lots of lovely fish! It was amazeballs!

HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF:
I stayed at Bella's Backpackers which I would recommend.
The tour was organised by a guy called Steve who did not have an office but wondered the island offering his services! Almost all snorkelling tours in Caye Caulker however should provide a very similar experience so there is no way you can miss out! Tours average around $80 for the day.
The easiest way to travel to Caye Caulker is by Ferry from Belize City - takes about 40 minutes.

Diving Belize & The Great Blue Hole - Belize Diving Services
Filmed in 2012 while diving with Belize Diving Services on the island of Caye Caulker, just south of Ambergris Caye, including a dive on The Great Blue Hole with formations made during the last Ice Age when sea levels were over 200 feet lower than today.

Blue Hole - Caye Caulker - Frenchie's Diving Services
The Great Blue Hole is a circular hole in the middle of Lighthouse Reef Atoll. About 1000 feet across and just a little over 400 feet deep. In it, the diver will find coral only at the very top, on the rim of the hole. The lack of sunlight prevents coral growth on the inclining walls of the hole. Lack of coral leads to few fish as well. At about 130 feet of depth, one can see huge stalagtites hanging off the overhang. Some of them more then 20 feet in length. Also at this depth several reef sharks and an occasional bull shark greet the divers. At certain days more than 20 of them chill out in the cool depth of the Blue Hole. These sharks have just recently named the hole their home and make for a very exciting dive.

SCUBA DIVING BELIZE | Ambergris Caye and Placencia | travel vlog 2019
SCUBA diving in Belize in a highlight of both the Caribbean and tourism in Central America. While the jungles attract a lot of tourists, Belize is also home to the second largest barrier reef in the world. It has so many incredible experiences for those who love to dive or snorkel. For this SCUBA diving adventure travel vlog I teamed up with PADI, a world famous diver training organization, and William Drumm, a talented underwater photographer.
We started the trip by taking a small plane from Belize City to San Pedro in Ambergris Caye. Here, we met up with Ramon's Village Resort and dove Hol Chan Marine Park, as well as many of the beautiful coral channels that snake through the reef. Highlights here for us were Nurse Sharks, Loggerhead Sea Turtles, and even an Octopus
Unfortunately our dive to The Great Blue Hole was cancelled due to weather, but ended up seeing a Bottlenose dolphin underwater close to the reef. Not a bad replacement.
Next was taking another plane from San Pedro to Placencia to meet Patricia at SPLASH dive centre to dive at Silk Caye. We island hopped, saw the underwater goddess statue, and trekked through Cockscomb Basin.
Hope you Enjoyed this SCUBA diving travel vlog in Belize!

BEAUTIFUL Caye Caulker, Belize
BEAUTIFUL Caye Caulker, Belize
A 7 day visit to Caye Caulker was just what we needed to relax, scuba dive, and explore. There are no paved rides and bicycles are the main option for getting around. If you love animals, this is the place for you! All the kitty and puppy love you can stand on a tropical island. Scuba diving was lovely! The coral was healthy and life was abundant. If you get the chance, go check this island out! Music provided by local resident Gregory Michael. Also, don't forget the tarpon feeding. A cheap thrill! Places to eat include: Ice N Beans, Chef Kareem's, Namaste Cafe, Southside Pizza, La Cubana, Errolyn's Fry Jacks, and so many more! Belize Diving Services was great. Their boats were nice and spacious and all equipment was clean and new. Lighthouse Atoll, San Pedro, and Turneffe Atoll were our stops. We loved all for different reasons. Lots of Reef Sharks and Nurse Sharks! Keep your eye out for the Red and Purple Sea Goddess Nudibranch! Our Dive master found some, which is not an easy task! Be careful with street food. Sometimes it does not sit well! I would recommend this island to all of my scuba friends!
