San Pedro snorkeling

Hol Chan Marine Reserve is a super popular dive spot in Belize, known for its abundance of marine life. The name means "little channel" in the Maya language, and it covers about five square miles of underwater awesomeness. No fishing is allowed here, so the place is teeming with all sorts of cool creatures like angelfish, snapper, and even green moray eels. It's like an underwater paradise! Just remember to take only photos and leave the coral and fish alone. And watch out for those strong tidal currents, they can be a doozy!
