Three dives. A full day on the local reef.

The three-tank local dive is designed for divers who want to experience more of the Belize Barrier Reef in a single day while still enjoying comfortable surface intervals back on shore.

Explore More of the Belize Barrier Reef

With the reef sitting only minutes offshore from Ambergris Caye, Belize Pro Dive Center has access to more than 30 local dive sites directly in front of San Pedro.

Your divemaster selects the day's dive sites based on weather, sea conditions, diver experience and the sites you have already visited. Whenever possible, repeat guests are taken somewhere new unless they specifically request a favorite site.

What You'll Experience

Local diving around San Pedro is known for distinctive spur-and-groove reef formations that create coral canyons running along the Belize Barrier Reef.

Before every dive, your divemaster provides a detailed briefing covering the dive site, conditions, maximum depth and recommended bottom time.

Common marine-life encounters can include nurse sharks, turtles, rays, eels, groupers, snappers and a wide variety of Caribbean reef species, with occasional encounters with larger pelagic marine life.

Typical Local Dive Approx. 60 ft / 18 m

Each dive generally lasts approximately 45–50 minutes depending on conditions, air consumption and individual diver experience.
