Barrier Reef Of BelizeBerrier Reef
The clear and warm waters off the coast of Belize, and the mainland streams and rivers that feed into it, help to form the perfect marine environment worthy of sustaining a coral reef. And sustain a coral reef the Belize waters most certainly do. The Belize Barrier Reef is the second largest barrier reef in the world, with only the Great Barrier Reef of Australia topping it in size.

It’s very impressive to consider that this renowned Belize coral reef extends for more than 180 miles, and since it’s never more than 25 miles from the Belize coast, it’s extremely easy for tourists to access. In fact, the Belize coral reef might just be the country’s top tourist attraction. Not only does it make for excellent diving and snorkeling, but it’s also a wonderful fishing destination. Should you be headed to Central America to enjoy a Belize vacation, Barrier Reef Of Belizeyou’ll have plenty of options to arrange tours to what Charles Darwin labeled as, “the most remarkable reef in the West Indies”. That was way back in 1842, and the Belize Barrier Reef continues to impress visitors of all kinds to this day.

The Belize reef that visitors so enjoy is part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System, which extends from Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula on down to the waters off of Guatemala.

Did you know? That it is a magnet to an array of marine life, with over 100 different species of hard and soft coral, some 500 species of fish, and various invertebrate species making it their home.
