Rainforest Tours Programs in Belize

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. Students dive into marine biology activities, including reef fish identification, guided by local experts. Beyond the ocean, go on a guided visit to ancient Mayan ruins and help crocodile biologists safeguard the local marine habitats. This program doesn't just deepen your understanding of marine ecosystems but also equips essential skills in environmental stewardship. It offers a profound, lasting impact on your knowledge of global conservation efforts.

This small but incredibly vibrant country offers a rare blend of ocean exploration, cultural immersion, and rainforest discovery you won’t find anywhere else. Your adventure begins on the shores of Caye Caulker, where you’ll snorkel the world-renowned Meso-American Barrier Reef—home to sea turtles, nurse sharks, rays, and brilliantly colored coral. Then, trade sandy beaches for lush jungle as you head inland to uncover the secrets of Belize’s thriving ecosystems. Track wild animals with expert guides, band tropical birds like a real ornithologist, and immerse yourself in local culture through farm tours, cooking workshops, and spirited Kriol drumming around the fire. Along the way, you’ll meet conservation leaders and learn how communities across Belize are working to protect their environment. This is more than a trip—it’s a hands-on journey through the wild heart of Central America.

Dive into a unique volunteer opportunity with GoEco's Private Island Marine Conservation Experience in Belize. This program allows you to immerse yourself in the stunning beauty of Belize's marine ecosystems while making a tangible difference in their preservation. As a volunteer, you'll use your diving skills to contribute to protecting the delicate coral reef ecosystems that provide food, protection, and shelter to a myriad of marine animals. These ecosystems are under threat due to various factors, and your involvement can help mitigate these threats. Throughout your time on the island, you'll engage in a variety of marine preservation tasks, ranging from survey dives to species identification. You might even have the chance to photograph whale sharks. But the experience isn't all work. You'll also have the freedom to choose how much you want to get involved. All dives are voluntary, so when you're not diving, you can relax in a hammock with a good book, fish from the island, or engage in sea kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding.
