The Cayes and Atolls: Places to Explore

Glover's Reef Atoll

Named after the pirate John Glover, this coral necklace strung around an 80-square-mi (208-square-km) lagoon is the southernmost of Belize's three atolls. There are five islands at the atoll. Visitors to Glover's Reef are charged a BZ$20 park fee (BZ$25 for fly-fishing).

Kayaking is another popular sport here; you can paddle out to the atoll's many patch reefs for snorkeling. Most hotels rent kayaks.
