Snorkeling isn’t just putting on a mask, some fins and dunking your head underwater to see a few fish swimming around. As a matter of fact, to the avid snorkeler, you might say it is one of the most awesome experiences they could ever imagine.
Some of the world’s finest snorkeling locations are in the southern Atlantic and Caribbean areas. For scuba diving and snorkeling vacations, you might want to consider Blackbird Caye Resort on the Belize Barrier Reef. Here you will find the second-longest living reef in the world. The array of colorful sealife is sometimes beyond description; from the different species of tropical fish, the occasional sight of dolphins swimming by, to the majestic glory found in the coral reefs themselves.
These coral reefs are made up of “atolls,” which are sunken rims of ancient volcanoes. Over many hundreds of years, these volcanoes gradually wore down, and are now below sea level. Some have described the coral reefs as “beautiful rings of islands” that have formed around the rims. These atolls are usually in shallow waters, and are described as having sandy bottoms with the most gorgeous colors and varieties of coral imaginable growing and moving around the entire rim. Combine this fascinating easel of color works with spectacular rainbow colors of fish and sealife, and it makes for one of the world’s most famous and fabulous areas of “nature at its finest.”
