TOUR DESCRIPTION:
You will be picked up by a fast speedboat at the ship and first taken to the nearby 
Manatee breeding grounds.  You are almost certain to see one or several of these 
docile and protected sea mammals.  Goff's Caye is another seven miles to the east 
and this small island is perched right on Belize's Great Barrier Reef, a true picture 
postcard tropical paradise.  Snorkel off the pristine sandy beach with your instructors 
for that wonderful “Cousteau Experience”, or just swim in cool waters, or relax under a 
palm tree.  A beach BBQ lunch and refreshments are served, accompanied by soft 
Caribbean sounds.  Snorkel equipment included.  Rum Punch is provided after snorkeling 
activity.
SITES PASSED/PHOTOGRAPHIC OPPORTUNITIES
Coral formations and marine life.
Tour Timetable:

Passengers will board excursion boats directly from the ship.  In the event of rough seas, 
passengers must be tendered to the city dock where they then board excursion boats.
