False Caye is located just off shore from Maya Breeze Inn in Maya Beach. For a 5-minute boat ride you can experience great snorkeling. For those wanting a full day of snorkeling, there are several Cayes approximately 10 miles off shore from Maya Breeze Inn. There you will have 50-150 ft visibility and waters that average 78-86 degrees fahrenheit. These reefs are filled with numerous tropical fish, rays and you might even see a manatee.

For those who want to spend a day snorkeling, a trip to the outer cayes is a must. Your trip starts at 9:00 a.m. with a 40-minute boat ride to the outer cayes. There, you will disembark for an hour on a pristine caye, covered in palm trees, white sandy beaches and some of the best snorkeling you can find. These cayes are relatively untouched with about 40 different snorkeling sites such as Laughing Bird, and Queen Caye. These cayes are protected from wind and generally calm waters year round. You can expect to see numerous soft and hard corals, colorful tropical reef fish, stingrays, dolphins, and at the right time of year, even a whale shark. A pack lunch is provided on the caye followed by more snorkeling.
