Diving
& Snorkeling Belize
Mark
Webster
In
the former cradle of the Mayan empire, Belize is one of the world's top
ecotourism destinations. Topside, tropical rainforests are populated by exotic
birds, monkeys and wild cats, while offshore lie the world's second-largest
barrier reef and three of the Western Hemisphere's four coral atolls. Shallow
reefs ring the more than 450 cayes and islets, while towering walls plunge into
the sea. More than 400 fish species and a host of corals and invertebrates
shelter in the warm Caribbean waters. This book explores 66 of the best dive
sites off Belize, with full-color photos throughout.
