The Blue Hole Snorkel, Belize 2016 – Robert Belshe

We wanted to share some great images of snorkeling the Blue Hole, taken by our guest Bob Belshe.  Bob and his family joined us on the Lighthouse Reef Adventure in mid-February.  

On day 4, the group headed out to the Blue Hole to snorkel the wonderful clear waters of the Lighthouse Reef Atoll. The snorkeling excursion to the Blue Hole is a highlight for many of the guests on our Lighthouse Reef trips.  Thank you Bob for sharing these beautiful photos!
