Rising from the deep in an oval shape, Glover’s Reef has a huge 100-square mile lagoon with dozens of smaller reefs. Home to vibrantly colored underwater plants and a rich abundance of marine life, Glover’s Reef is part of the National Marine Reserve. It is one of the seven protected marine areas of the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Swim with the many varieties of tropical fish in Belize’s warm Caribbean waters, including Angelfish, Trumpet fish, rays and beautiful Parrot fish. From beginners to the experienced, you will enjoy one of the most spectacular, unspoiled snorkeling spots that the Caribbean has to offer.

Glover's Reef Atoll Snorkel

Explore the wonders of the reef

Glover’s Reef, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and protected National Marine Reserve of Belize, forms the outermost boundary of the Belize Barrier Reef and is considered the most remote of Belize’s three major atolls. This exclusive location feels a world away and makes for an untouched and pristine snorkeling experience all within a 1 – 10 minute distance from Manta Island Resort.

While there are very few places in Belize where you can snorkel right offshore, and our resort, Manta Island, is one of them, we also offer guided snorkeling tours to a variety of the nearby snorkeling hotspots. Even though Glover’s Reef is the smallest atoll, only 17 miles long, it boasts a reef that is over 50 miles long around its edge, so, with our guided snorkeling tours, chances are you may visit a different spot each time!

"If you are looking to snorkel dive or fish but want also great food and accommodations look no further! Snorkeling right off the beach or a short kayak takes you to healthy active patch reefs. My husband enjoyed fly fishing right off the island also while I floated in the pool:)"
