Dangriga and Hopkins are the perfect bases to explore the range of dive sites in the central area, with boat rides to the sites typically taking 30 minutes. The most notable sites are the marine reserves of Tobacco Caye and South Water Caye, which have small resorts and amenities making them excellent bases for a days diving.
Top sites include:
Faegon's Bluff - The two reefs separated by sandy flats attract large shoals of sardines and needlefish, often trailed by prowling barracuda. Along with the gorgonian corals, you will also find mushroom and plate corals sheltering reef fish, in particular yellow stripped French angelfish and golden hogfish.
Fishy Point - The reef drops sharply from 60ft to a 100ft sandy plain where blue tangs gather by the hundreds to feed along the slope. Grunts, black groupers, snappers and moray eels all hide out in the overhangs.
Tobacco Cut - One of the very few shore dives possible in Belize, the site is located on the south side of Tobacco Caye and is a perfect place to do a night dive. Common encounters on a night dive here include octopuses, free swimming moray eels, squid and many others.
Eagle Ray Bowl - The 'bowl' shaped sandy plain attracts southern stingrays and eagle rays to feed and rest. There are a number of large gullies at the edge of the reef; on the east wall you can watch the passing reef sharks and turtles.
