Where to Go Diving in Belize

There are two main locations when it comes to diving in Belize; Placencia on the southern coast and further north around the atolls of the Barrier Reef, or Cayes, as they are locally known. Each destination offers something different to the keen diver, but we definitely recommend visiting both!
