Belize's Hol Chan: Full-Day Shark Ray Alley Snorkel Tour

My wife and I loved this day trip. It was packed with great snorkeling - we saw lots of sharks, rays, turtles, and fish. Feeding the tarpon and petting the sting rays on Caye Caulker were really cool. Our guides Kyle and Jordan were awesome! They were super friendly and were great providing guidance and answering questions. It was a perfect day!

Marvin & Nick were AMAZING!! We had some very demanding guest on our tour - who should have probably booked a private charter. They were able to navigate their demands in a very professional manner, while ensuring all the other passengers were getting their 100%. Marvin & Nick kept the vibes high and are so knowledgeable and prideful of the island. The tour was long ~ a full day for sure but super enjoyable and an experience you will never forget!! Highly recommend. Marvin & Nick 10/10 the real MVP’s!! Lunch was delicious too!!

We spent the whole day out in the sea. Snorkeled in 4 spots . Looking for marine life of various kinds and found plenty. We were a group of 13 and we had two guides -Marvin and Nick. Both were knowledgeable and confident and fun, but ensuring safety was first. Nick specifically ensured he was around to help and guide my husband who was not a very confident swimmer. He also helped take pictures on my GoPro so I could enjoy the activity. Overall a fabulous day. Kudos to the guides and to Over, the owner of tour operator -Ridge and Reef adventures

This was an amazing experience and even with me getting seasick was still very worth it. We saw so many sea creatures from turtles, octopus, and even sharks. What more can you ask for for a snorkeling adventure? Our guides were great at managing all of us and made it feel very safe. We had a few people panic while trying to breath with a snorkel and they were able to calm them down and made sure it was enjoyable for everyone.

WOW!!!! What a great snorkeling adventure! Multiple stops and good amount of time in the water. Jordan and Kyle couldn’t have been more attentive, helping in and out of the water, giving great information and pointing out things. They continuously were checking on everyone and making sure we all were enjoying our time. Ridge and Reef adventures made it very easy to sign in (be warned the meeting location given by this site is off by 100 yards to the north) We absolutely recommend everything about our full day snorkeling trip, tarpon feeding and island exploring! Thank you The Colorado J’s

Tour is really good. Guides are helpful. Ride was very bumpy though because the water current. We didn't get to see much marine life after shark rally

The activity was beyond our expectations! Our tour guides, Kyle and Jordan, were borh very informative and passionate about what they do. They made sure that the group was safe and were with us throughout the whole snorkeling experience. Definetly recommend!!

We did 3 tours starting with the full day Hol Chan, Shark Alley, Coral Gardens and Caye Cauker. While the content of the tour was good our boat was at full capacity with 16 people and they guides focused on logistics for each location and did not provide a tour experience. The guides did not say much about what we were seeing. The second tour we went on was Mexican Rocks and Sting Ray Alley with an amazing tour guide Marvin. He pointed out and told us the names of all of the fish and corals. I asked to see lobsters and he found some in the coral nooks for me to see. We mentioned we wanted to go on a night snorkel and Marvin agreed he could take us. Marvin did an amazing job showing us the marine life at night. I would highly recommend Marvin as a tour guide.

We had a wonderful time on a full day snorkeling tour. Hol Chan and surrounding reef was the best snorkeling we have ever had. So much marine life to see- countless varieties of fish, rays, nurse sharks, green turtles- amazing! Boys even saw a hammer head shark at one of our stops. Our guides Keanton and Abraham were very kind and patient. The day even included a stop to feed the tarpon fish and search for sea horses and manotees. We were not fortunate enough to see the manotees but the rest of the day made up for it. Our boys are 13 and it was a perfect day for them. Would not recommend for very young since it is a lot of snorkeling and a full day.

The captain was very informative, the operators had excellent equipment, and the full day option was fun the entire time. The pace of the guide was aligned with the small group. All snorkels were dry snorkels so no water splashed in, which was not the case in other operators we used. Use this company for the best experience!
