Belize City | Northern Belize/Orange Walk | Cayo District | Southern Belize | The Cayes

Tropical islands cooled by ocean breezes, the cayes are
the most popular destinations for visitors to Belize. At
approximately 25 miles long, Ambergris Caye is the
largest and most developed of all the 200 islands, or
cayes (pronounced "keys") in Belize.
The island itself is situated about 20 miles east of the
mainland on the northern portion of the country.
Ambergris Caye actually is the far southern tip of the
Yucatan Peninsula. The only thing separating the island
from Mexico is a channel that was hand dug by the
Maya to facilitate trade and transportation.
The cayes are a diver's, snorkeler's, birder's, and fisherman's
paradise. The amazing coral reef system, the second
largest in the world, lies one-half mile length of the island.
This has made San Pedro Town the dive and water sport
capital in the western Caribbean. The Great Blue Hole,
Turneffe Islands, Shark Ray Alley, Hol Chan Marine
Reserve, Mexico Rocks, Lighthouse Reef and many other
dive areas, some of which are only a short boat ride away, are just a few of the
possibilities.
The Belize mainland is a short boat or plane ride from
Ambergris Caye, allowing a visitor to stay in the Cayes
yet visit Belize national parks, reserves, Maya ruins,
and other rainforest attractions.
