Silk Cayes is a marine reserve consisting of 3 small islands formerly known as the Queen Cayes. This Marine Reserve hosts over 25 species of reef fish, with a variety of coral and other marine life! The Silk Caye is one of healthiest areas in the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System due to its location and protected status. It is a great destination to snorkel, scuba dive or simply spend a day on the island! Snorkelers explore the reefs surrounding the islands. Scuba Divers explore the the barrier reef wall and other dive sites the Silk Cayes have to offer. As a bonus just before returning to Placencia, everyone has an opportunity to snorkel with rays, sharks and (usually) huge turtles in an area where the local fishermen clean their catch - when the critters hear the boat engines, they think it is meal time and come to the dive boat.

Cần Quan Tâm

Silk Cayes is our most popular snorkel destination, also offering fantastic snorkel and scuba diving opportunities on the nearby Barrier Reef. This idyllic getaway is perfect for the whole family and is part of a marine reserve established to protect the outer reef, teeming with marine life, tropical fish, and healthy corals. Your adventure begins with a briefing by park rangers before a licensed snorkel guide leads you into the water to meet the local residents. Whether you're a seasoned snorkeler or a first-timer, our guides are ready to teach and guide you, pointing out fascinating coral formations and the diverse creatures that inhabit them, including lobsters, cleaner shrimp, arrow crabs, snapper, barracuda, and a plethora of reef fish. Around midday, enjoy an authentic Belizean picnic lunch. Afterward, dive back into the water to explore more of the vibrant corals and marine life that call Silk Cayes home. The best part is yet to come! Turtle Alley, a spot just inside the barrier reef where local fishermen clean their catch, offering you the exciting opportunity for close encounters with huge turtles, rays, and nurse sharks.

They were an hour late picking us up. They packed the boat with almost too many people. Once we got there the guide was great in the water. Saw lots of fish, sharks stingray and turtle. Lunch was not great- bring your own food! But Belize is beautiful and the people are super friendly!
Just a great experience on Belize reefs with Splash

We spent 3 days with Splash Diving and would definitely use them again. Our grandson did his AOW and nitrox certs and the entire family, divers and snorkelers alike, were treated to great reef sightings. Safety was clearly a priority and it was a real pleasure- and fun- to meet and be cared for by the boat and booking teams. communication was excellent. THANK YOU SPLASH!

The snorkelling tour was amazing. Cant recommend enough. Nice helpful guides showing a lot of reef and fish. Unfortunately we didn’t see turtles. Boat ride is pretty bumpy so be ready for that. Also - bring sunscreen with you. There are three separate snorkelling events during this trip and it’s good to reapply the sunscreen.
One of the must do tours in Belize!

Excellent tour! While the weather wasn’t on our side today tour guides still made sure we had an amazing experience! We saw so many types of fish, some sharks, swam in the beautiful sea and had a great lunch! Our guides knew so much and taught us way more than I ever expected!
Great snorkeling and enjoyable Splash Dive Center staff

The snorkeling was fantastic! The guide was very knowledgable and kept a good pace around the reefs. It was enjoyable that the guide repeated the names of the fish we'd see in the water multiple times to allow everyone to hear the name properly so we could learn something as well.
Icing on the Cake!

Amazing day! They take care of you from beginning to end. See dolphins, beautiful corals, so many fish, turtles and nurse sharks. They guided us through the coral and even set us to wander around a bit ourselves. Ask about the coral nursery! So cool!
We're lawyers suing Viator. Don't use them EVER.

They stole my money and Viator did nothing about it despite selling me on the trip. We are currently suing Viator.

The snorkeling was perfect off the tiny island of Silk Caye. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a small group so lots of personal attention.

My friend and I had the most amazing time snorkeling at the Silk Caye. Captain Ian and guide, Moses were professional, but also fun and relatable. We were lucky enough to see turtles, nurse sharks, spotted eagle rays, sting rays, barracudas, and a host of amazing tropical fish around the gorgeous coral. The boat ride was about an hour from Placencia. It went by quickly and there was an excellent playlist for the experience. The gear was in great condition and made by quality brands. Highly recommend booking!
