My husband and I are planning a trip to Belize next year July/August. We plan to do about 10 days of diving, and then some travelling around. I have been reading about the different areas in Belize, and have a couple of questions. Hopefully, one of you experienced travellers have some answers for me!
We have both done about 50 dives. During the first ten days in Belize, we would like to do about 2 to 3 dives a day. We would love to escape the crowds, and like a good dinner after diving!
-> What is Glover's reef like to in terms of accomodation, tranquility, diving? If you stay at one of the resorts there, do the dive operators only dive around/near the atoll or can you also make day trips to further spots?
-> I have understood Placencia and Dangriga are somewhat more remote than e.g. Ambergris Caye. Does anybody have experience with accomodation there, what's the diving like there in terms of sites and diver operators?
-> Is it worthwhile to stay on one of the atolls Turneffe or Lighthouse? I understand the dive operators organize trips from Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker, so that's probably not the issue?
Furthermore, I am very interested in any tips, advice, experiences etc on Belize!
Thanks a lot!
