Barrier Reef and Coral Cays
Victoria House
An elegant colonial-style resort located approximately two miles south of the main town, offering very comfortable range of accommodations suitable for couples and families. The resort has beautiful surroundings, a good beach, dive operation and lovely swimming pools.
The coconut palm-covered island of Ambergris Caye is located on the northern end of the Belize Barrier Reef, famous for great Caribbean diving and snorkelling. A short distance offshore, where the reef meets the open ocean, there are excellent wall dives and a mix of reef and pelagic species. Closer to town is Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark and Ray Alley, leeward is a large shallow lagoon where manatees can be found. The small town of San Pedro is approximately 20 – 30 minutes’ walk from the hotel and has a lively, friendly atmosphere and a variety of bars and good restaurants serving fresh seafood, including lobster, and other local dishes.
