Hotel at a Glance: Blackbird Caye Resort

The Mesoamerican Reef is the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere. Within its colorful corals dwell a rich tapestry of marine life: dolphins, manatees, and hundreds of species of tropical fish. Blackbird Caye Resort has a front-row seat to this spectacular display from its setting on a private island just off the coast of Belize. Beachfront cabanas with private screened-in porches are a 10- to 15-minute boat ride from more than 70 snorkeling and dive sites and just 45 minutes from Belize’s famous Great Blue Hole.

  • Book a snorkeling or diving excursion: The resort offers three daily dives, two daily snorkeling trips, and one weekly diving trip to the Great Blue Hole (additional fees apply). Two snorkeling excursions are included with each Groupon purchased.
  • Three meals a day are included at the resort’s palapa-style restaurant: you’ll get buffets for breakfast and lunch and your choice of two entrees for dinner. You can also purchase snacks and cocktails onsite.
  • Lounge on the beach: Blackbird Caye Resort overlooks a 2-mile-long private beach nestled amid coconut trees.
  • Spot bonefish, barracuda, stingrays, and nurse sharks from two whitewashed docks that extend into the Caribbean Sea.
  • Getting here: Complimentary round-trip transfers are available from Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport (BZE) on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. Travel on other days can be arranged through the hotel for an additional fee.

Turneffe Atoll, Belize: World-Class Scuba Diving and Snorkeling

One of more than 400 islands off the coast of Belize, Turneffe Atoll is is only 30 miles from Belize City. The atoll is 10 miles wide, and extends for 30 miles along the Caribbean, making it one of the Western Hemisphere’s largest coral atolls. It’s also considered the most biologically diverse, made up of lagoons and mangrove forests home to loggerhead turtles, saltwater crocodiles, endangered Antillean manatees, and other exotic wildlife.

From Turneffe Atoll, you can explore the other paradisiacal settings in the Belize cays. About 40 minutes away, the Lighthouse Reef atoll is the site of Half Moon Caye Natural Monument, home to a diverse assortment of both underwater and land creatures. Rare red-footed boobies nest on the caye for about 10 months out of the year, spending the other 2 months playing shuffleboard in Naples.

The atoll is a part of one of the world’s largest barrier-reef systems, and you can explore this natural wonder on a scuba-diving trip. The resort offers a weekly trip to the iconic Great Blue Hole. Located in the middle of Lighthouse Reef, the Great Blue Hole is a 480-foot-deep limestone sinkhole that forms a nearly perfect circle in a brilliant shade of navy blue. Divers can see limestone stalactites and stalagmites hanging off the walls of the underwater cave.
