(Alex Gamero is the owner of DiscoveringBelize.com and has lost count of how many hotels and resorts in Belize he's visited.) The Aggressor III dive yacht one week all-inclusive packages with hassle-free diving at Turneffe Islands Atoll and Lighthouse Reef Atoll. Some of the best diving in Belize can be found on these atolls. Turneffe is the largest of Belize's atolls. The extensive mangrove islands in its central lagoon act as important fish nurseries resulting in abundant marine life on this atoll. The most well known dive site is The Elbow, which is a deep channel through the reef. A constant supply of nutrients brought through by currents (it's primarily a drift dive) attract very large schools of snappers and jacks in mid-water above the reefs. After a few days of diving this atoll you'll head to Lighthouse Reef, the most remote of Belize's atolls. The Blue Hole lies in its central lagoon. First explored by Jacques Cousteau, it's an almost perfect circular sinkhole that drops to over 400 feet. At around 140 feet the walls curve inwards lined by massive stalactities. Half Moon Caye sits on the southern end of the atoll and was designated a UN World Heritage Site in 1982. The wall infront of this island is also specacular. During this week of diving you have have unlimited dives. Most divers do about 5 dives a day including night dives, so these trips are for the true underwater enthusiast. The motto aboard these dive boats is simple, "Eat, Sleep and Dive". The Aggressor III is a 110 foot yacht built from the ground up for diving, but also offers comfort with a touch of luxury. The private rooms come with a private bathroom, air conditioning and a TV/VCR. There is also a nice salon with an entertainment center and a sun deck with hot tub, chaise lounges, bar and grill. The food is varied and plentiful and drinks, including beer and wine are included. Nitrox is available on board. Underwater photographes will also appreciate the on board photo center with E-6 processing lab. Overall, this one week package is Belize diving at its best.
