The Experience

Two dives. Two reef sites. One easy morning.

The Belize Barrier Reef sits only minutes from San Pedro, making local two-tank diving one of the easiest ways to experience more of the reef without spending your entire day on a boat.

Local Diving from San Pedro

Our local dive sites are located directly offshore from Ambergris Caye, giving us quick access to the distinctive spur-and-groove reef formations of the Belize Barrier Reef.

With more than 30 local dive sites available, your divemaster selects the sites based on weather, sea conditions, diver experience and where you have already been diving.

Local dive sites to explore

Repeat guests can experience a variety of reef sites rather than being taken back to the same location each day unless requested.

What You'll Experience

Local dives typically average around 60 ft / 18 m and feature coral canyons, spur-and-groove formations and a mix of Caribbean marine life.

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

Common marine-life encounters can include nurse sharks, turtles, rays, eels, groupers, snappers and other reef species, with occasional encounters with larger pelagic life.
