Pilot Mike Kuhn after reef trip
|
Belize is fortunate, for many
reasons, to be home to the longest unbroken barrier reef in the world.
Even if you are not a diver or a snorkeler but would simply like to revel
in the panoramic view of the largest barrier reef in the Western
Hemisphere, Tropic Air has arranged this for you.
Now every Wednesday, you have the opportunity to step
aboard a specifically equipped Cessna Caravan and be part of an
awe-inspiring aerial adventure. The trip departs San Pedro
at 10:30 a.m.
bound for, not only the Blue Hole (made famous by world-renown ocean
explorer Jacques Cousteau), but three of only four magnificent atolls to
be found in the Caribbean Sea. In addition to this, you can enjoy a
bird's eye view of various cayes, Lighthouse Reef, Turneffe and the
Belize mainland. From the air, one can observe shipwrecks, see a
rainbow of colors and spot a variety of sea creatures. The one-hour
flight is narrated, so sit back, relax, and listen to the explanation of
the various formations, marine and geographic descriptions and how the
mariners of the past describe some of their historic experiences. Pieces
of lively ethnic music are also pleasantly blended into this narration.
The San Pedro Sun was
pleased to be on a maiden voyage and recommends it to anyone for a
marvelous ride. It featured beautiful scenery, was wonderfully
informative and truly a unique experience. For more information or to
make reservations, call 026-2012 or email: [email protected].
