Another snorkeling question

[CrusingGolfers]

Wife is not wild about shark ray alley which is all Coral Breeze is offering when I'm there on the Carnival Legend later this month. Any other options other than coral breezes? Has anyone else used other companies that you like? We want to snorkel she loves doing that however she isn't a fan of stingrays at all. We will book shark ray alley and she will stay on the boat if all else fails.

 

Thanks for the help

Your wife could enjoy the snorkeling over the reef & on the second stop. stay aboard & watch the interactions with the Nurse Sharks & Rays & I'd bet that if she enjoys snorkeling, that she will decide to get into the water & enjoy the playful Rays. Then it is off to Caye Caulker to have lunch & explore the island.

Let us know how she did ?

Enjoy Belize.

The more we look and read we may just take the water taxi to caye caulker. Once we get there do they offer snorkel tours from there? We really want to enjoy the island and go to the split but I also want to snorkel there as I've heard it is the best in the Carribbean.

We did a tour with Star Tours on CC. The tour itself was decent but they were not well equipped. The outboard quit several times going to and from the reef. We had to wait almost an hour for the tour to start and then we almost missed the last water taxi before our ship sailed. The snorkeling was decent though.

 

There will be tours available at the tourist village.
