(above) From outside the Barton Creek Cave, you can see the enterence straight ahead. Barton Creek Cave is one of Cayo's many breath taking natural wonders. Located off the Chiquibul road this cave has become one Cayo's newest attractions. Access to the cave is through a picturesque Mennonite farm community. |
The Great Blue Hole of Belize (above) has been a source of wonder to all who have witnessed it. It is located in the Lighthouse Reef, one of four atolls in the Western Hemisphere, three of the four are in Belizean waters. The diameter of the nearly circular blue hole is a quarter of a mile and it is believed to be almost 450 feet deep. The depth is not for certain and in fact has been a matter of debate over the years. |
In some
places you have to lay flat in your canoe to avoid the natural formations
of the cave (below). Skeletal remains, large formations, and pottery
can be seen as you travel close to a mile through the cave to one
of the stopping points. Barton Creek tours last anywhere between
2-4 hours. |
