Turneffe Island Resort

Set on Turneffe Atoll in Belize, Turneffe Island Resort puts more than 32 dive sites within easy reach. The waters around the atoll are alive with turtles, giant groupers, nurse and reef sharks, angelfish, pufferfish, eagle rays, sting rays and the indigenous white-spotted toadfish — a roll call that keeps every dive feeling fresh.

Diving the day, your way

Purpose-built dive boats head out for single tank dives, with surface intervals spent back on the island. The exception is Tuesday, when a full-day dive and snorkel excursion runs to the Blue Hole, and a picnic can be arranged for the trip. Once you've set up for the first dive, the team handles your gear between dives as part of the signature dive valet service.

A professional team of 6 PADI Instructors teaches the most popular recreational courses, from Discover Scuba Diving and the Open Water Referral to Advanced Open Water, Deep Diver and Enriched Air. Nitrox and rental equipment, including dive computers, are available, and a house reef sits right on the doorstep — a relaxed fit for divers at every level.
