Lucked out with beautiful, calm weather. My husband and I went scuba diving at Silk Caye with Benji. It was an hour to get there from Placencia. We dove 2 sites: 1) White Hole: max depth 80ft and 2) North Wall: average depth 60ft. Lots of nurse sharks, tropical fish, lionfish, lobsters… the sea life is healthy. There were only 4 scuba divers which was nice. My only complaint is that the boat was full with other snorkelers & the boat is not comfortable for a 1 hr boat ride each way. We were served good lunch with tasty chicken with sauce, rice and beans, and potato salad.…

We so enjoyed our trip to Laughing Bird Caye with our guide, Bobo. He was so kind, and always checking on me when I was fiddling with my mask while we snorkeled. He seems to be quite a figure in the community also. It was such an honor to have him as our guide!! On another note... PLEASE DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE SUN WHILE YOU'RE SWIMMING. We got totally fried, from our shoulders to our calves. Not fun!! Be sure to wear waterproof sunscreen (reef safe if possible) or wet suits while in the water. The water magnifies the UV rays and you won't notice your burn until it's too late.…

We had a great time on our silk caye snorkeling tour. The staff was amazing. There were some young boys and a mother had to stay with one son so our guide stayed with the other older boy. He was so amazing and kind with that little kid but he also made sure the adults had a wonderful time and could see everything! It was a pretty long and bumpy (but fun) boat ride to the snorkeling. We don’t eat meat so we didn’t eat the food but everyone who did have it raved about the food. We liked all the guides and had a fabulous time!…

Stopped in here on a whim, last-minute, with a desire to go snorkeling and they squeezed us into a Silk Cayes tour. INCREDIBLE is the only word to describe the service, hospitality, and locations visited! Don't miss this one; snorkeling with nurse sharks, sting and eagle rays, and loggerhead turtles were the highlights of my Belizean adventure! Thanks to Mister Bobo and the rest of the crew!…

Our family of five had the pleasure of snorkeling and fishing with Darryl and Randy. We had an enjoyable boat ride during which different islands were pinpointed along the trip. We snorkeled at two different points and had the pleasure of swimming with rays, turtles and other beautiful sea creatures that Randy kindly named for us. A highlight was catching three varieties of fish, including a barracuda! The fish were expertly filleted in preparation for our resort chef. Overall, a fabulous and successful day.…
