Belize Scuba Diving Packages and Vacations at El Pescador, Ambergris Caye Island

El Pescador has been known as a world-class Scuba Diving destination. Our location Fabulous diving is found everywhere on the barrier reef which stretches the entire length of the coast, some 175 miles. In addition, three atolls provide another 180 miles of living reef.

El Pescador offers divers an un-Belize-able adventure exploring virgin reefs and cayes. When diving along the main barrier reef at Ambergris Caye, you will experience the vast canyons formed by large, living corals rising from a sandy bottom. These canyons are found just outside the reef at depths of 50 - 100 feet. The reef is usually found quite close to the Caye, no more than three quarters of a mile. The canyons are filled with caves and tunnels. Schools of snappers, grouper and nurse sharks are quite common. The occasional hammerhead or black tip shark gives divers a thrill.

Guests can also try a complimentary introduction to scuba in one of our three refreshing pools, enjoy a sunset catamaran cruise, or just sit back on our expansive deck with a cocktail from our bar.

The adventure starts from the moment you arrive, with a short plane transfer from the Belize International Airport to the town of San Pedro on Ambergris Caye Island. Our driver from El Pescador will be waiting for you on arrival to transfer you by private water taxi to your luxury Scuba Diving lodge and final destination.

Our gracious, mahogany colonial lodge is right on the beach, facing the sea, surrounded by fragrant tropical flowering plants and the whisper of shady palms. Each of the thirteen guest rooms in our main lodge face the sea and are just steps away from our swimming pool adjacent to the beach. All have private baths, overhead fans and air-conditioning.
