Great Blue Hole Flightseeing & Lighthouse Reef Snorkel

Soar over the iconic Great Blue Hole — a UNESCO World Heritage marine sinkhole 300 metres wide — then splash into the crystalline waters of Lighthouse Reef Atoll. A true once-in-a-lifetime aerial and aquatic encounter.

What to expect

A 45-minute scenic flight from Belize City's Municipal Airport delivers sweeping views of the atolls before your pilot circles the Blue Hole at low altitude for photos. You land on Lighthouse Reef, join a small-group guided snorkel, then fly back with a champagne toast en route. The entire experience unfolds in roughly four hours, leaving ample time before all-aboard.

Good to know

Depart from Belize Municipal Airport, a short taxi from the cruise pier. Pre-book well in advance — flights sell out weeks ahead. Bring a waterproof camera, reef-safe sunscreen, and a light cover-up. Confirm your all-aboard time and allow 30 minutes' transfer back to the ship.
