Went to Belize with family and friends a couple of years ago, and booked a snorkeling excursion from the ship (Carnival Pride). Not sure the location of the stop, but we were in the catamaran for about 25 minutes, then went to a small out-island to swim, snorkel, and relax on the beach before heading back to the ship.

 

I have to say it was one of the most beautiful places we have done a snorkeling trip. It is different from, for example, St John because of the abundance of coral reefs, and we saw many more colorful fish and sea life.

 

The only thing about the coral reef to remember is that sometimes they are close to the surface, and you must be careful not to hit it with your arm or leg. Someone did that and really cut their leg.

 

I think that you will not regret snorkeling in Belize!
