    Overview

    Spend two weeks exploring the rich marine life of this beautiful tropical nation. Earn your PADI SCUBA certification or advance your current skills while diving in the Belize Barrier Reef World Heritage Site. Learn about Maya culture, tour Mayan ruins, and help protect fragile marine habitats from invasive lionfish. 

    Experience an enriching 15-day summer program in Belize that blends marine biology and conservation with hands-on adventure. This immersive trip focuses on protecting the Western Hemisphere’s largest barrier reef by removing invasive lionfish and earning your SCUBA certification on a private Caribbean island.
