Shark and Ray Alley near Ambergris Caye is one of Belize's most iconic dive and snorkel sites, located within the Hol Chan Marine Reserve. Originally a spot where fishermen cleaned their catch, it now attracts large numbers of nurse sharks and southern stingrays that gather in the sandy shallows hoping for scraps. Divers and snorkelers can observe these gentle creatures gliding within touching distance in water just 2-4 meters deep. Large green moray eels, horse-eye jacks, and groupers join the congregation. An unforgettable wildlife encounter accessible to all skill levels in the warm, clear waters of the Caribbean.
