Half Moon Caye: A bird sanctuary in Belize
Welcome to the oldest national park of Belize! Nestled 50 miles off the Belize mainland, the Half Moon Caye Natural Monument is the top pick for the divers, snorkelers, and bird watchers.

The Half Moon Caye Natural Monument is composed of two unique ecosystems: the west full of wealthy foliage as well as thousands of birds along with the populated Red-footed Booby and the east known as the ‘paradise island’ holding palm trees, less foliage, and white beaches where turtles nest. The Red Footed Booby birds are one of the two Caribbean colonies, which stay here [...]
