Whether you are a first-timer or an experienced diver, scuba diving in Belize will be an unforgettable, intimate experience that will stir your soul. Once you come to Belize, you’ll make this special unspoiled destination an annual part of your dive schedule.

There is no shortage of certified divemasters, instructors or experienced boat captains to ensure your safety and enjoyment of Belize’s coral-studded waters.

You can obtain your open-water or advanced certification in Belize. Certification is available for PADI, NAUII and, in some areas, NITROX diving. First-timers can take in the experience through the “Discover Scuba” program.

You can explore the Belize Barrier Reef, the Blue Hole or embark on other authentic local adventures that only your divemaster can recommend. Just remember: Dive for fun, dive safely and dive certified.

Choose one or a combination of the following to create your own special dive adventure:

• Join a scheduled tour to specific dive sites for the day.
• Reserve a dive package via your mainland or offshore dive resort.
• Spend your vacation on one of the live-aboard dive boats, which move between the reef and atolls of Belize.
• Arrange a private charter with a dive operator for an exclusive experience.
