Go Slow basecamp for Belize's reef, reserves, and atolls
Belize's marine reserves are strictly managed. Follow guide briefings, stay with your group, and respect no-touch and no-take policies. For Blue Hole, only qualified divers with recent deep experience should participate. SMBs and audible signals are standard on every dive.
Hyperbaric support is on nearby Ambergris Caye in San Pedro, with 24-hour emergency response. Major referrals go to Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital in Belize City. Maintain DAN-style dive insurance and keep policy numbers on the boat.
Boat traffic near docks and The Split
Swim flags and high-visibility floats are essential near busy piers. Enter and exit only where local guides indicate.
Thimble jellyfish season
Wear a full rashguard or shorty during spring blooms to avoid sea-lice irritation.
Hurricane season
June to November brings tropical systems. Keep flexible plans and monitor forecasts.
Sun and dehydration
Tropical UV is intense. Use reef-safe sunscreen, hats, and hydrate between drops.
