Preserving Paradise: Belize Barrier Reef

The Belize Barrier Reef and the thriving marine environment are essential for maintaining a healthy coastal ecosystem. The reef safeguards our coastal communities and marine ecosystems, creating tranquil waters. The absence of strong wave action allows seagrass to flourish, with some of it washing ashore. Seagrass removal is regulated due to its significance in maintaining the Reef. Our resorts lack traditional walk-in beaches, but guests enjoy swimming off the docks, preserving our coastal environment. Intermittently, coastal areas of southern USA, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean will experience periods of Sargassum Seaweed washing ashore. Sargassum comes from the Sargasso Sea in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and is normally kept at bay by water temperatures and currents. Additionally, our dedicated grounds teams work hard to clear any seagrass drift that washes ashore, ensuring a pleasant environment for all. Guests should be aware when visiting coastal areas that seaweed may be present on beaches. By managing seagrass on our beaches and preserving the delicate balance of our coastal ecosystem, we ensure that Belize's natural beauty remains a highlight for all visitors.
