Then, head to Tobacco Caye, part of the South Water Caye Marine Reserve, and enjoy some time on the pristine beaches. Laze in a hammock on your over-the-water deck, go snorkeling around the Southern Barrier Reef, and spend some time paddling and kayaking surrounded by the fresh ocean breeze.

This Central American nation packs a punch in the form of its offshore barrier reef, which is the largest in the Western Hemisphere.

Stop at a nature reserve on your way to the coast to see big cats, then spend the remainder of your time on snorkeling trips around the south-coast reefs.
