I think snorkeling is actually more fun, and I have better photos from
snorkeling
than from diving, but diving has a more macho bragging rights quality. Something
I need to acquire as I get older and more seasoned.
Belize is very loose on requirements for diving, and you need to
watch yourself. I know some people, with maybe one or two days
of training, taken out to the Blue Hole for a 200+ foot dive. Crazy
I actually had some problems after 4 dives and had to stop. 130-150
foot dives are easy to come by, but my body had a hard time adapting
and I had to stop after the 4th dive in 3 days.
I'll take good snorkeling any day.
