Isla Contoy, a pristine and uninhabited island at the northeastern tip of the Yucatan
Peninsula, was established as a national wildlife reserve in 1981 and is sanctuary to
more than 70 species of birds. This lush jungle island habitat is host to pelicans, egrets,
flamingos and the magnificent frigate as well as an abundance of other land and marine
animal life. Here you'll be able to snorkel, laze around on the beach and, of course, bird
watch as you take in the incredible surroundings that convey an atmosphere nothing
short of a Caribbean paradise.

Ambergris Caye is the largest of some 200 cayes that dot the coastline of Belize. Ambergris is 25 miles long and a little over a mile wide in some places, and is located in the clear shallow waters of the Caribbean Sea just off the tip of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula.
Caye Caulker is relatively small, at five miles long by one half mile wide. Of this, only the southern end is inhabited by villagers and visitors; the wet northern section is a mangrove and forest reserve, the abode of mangroves, nesting birds, and palm trees, with trails for visitors. |
