Highlight
Hol Chan Marine Reserve was designated as marine sanctuary in 1987. It was the first time in Central America that natural parks in the sea are designated. Hol Chan Marine Reserve, rightly so, the most popular snorkeling destination in Belize. The words hol chan mean ‘little channel’ in the Maya language and as such it has always been a natural hang out spot for marine life. It was identified as an abundant area for marine life and so over 35 years ago it became a Reserve. The reserve covers about five square miles and about nine miles North East of Caye Caulker. The channel is about 30 feet deep, and since no fishing is permitted in the reserve, it is rich with sea life of every description . Snorkelers can expect to see abundant angelfish, blue-stripped grunts, schoolmaster snappers and hundreds of other varieties. It is also known for the green moray eels living in tiny caves along the wall.
