Ambergris Caye Beach Highlights

By Travel Expert: Linda Samuel
  • Witness the Great Blue Hole, a circular opening in the sea. The 1,000-foot spectacle is part of a cave system, which flooded during the Ice Age as water levels increased.
  • Launch from Ambergris Caya, adjacent to the world's second largest barrier reef (and largest in the Western Hemisphere).
  • Arrange a sailboat rental, multi-day charter, or short sailing cruise with an island operator. One-day excursions begin at US$100.
