Who is Ruben?
The first time you see him you may try to guess his age: 25? 30?
or 35 in seven years? Ruben moved to Ambergris Caye in 1993 hoping
to pursue better work opportunites, not knowing that scuba diving
would become his career in which he also ended up being one of the
best scuba instructors in Belize. Here he also met his wife and had
their four handsome boys: Angel Estuardo, 8; Angel Adolfo, 7; Angel
Jose, 5 and Angel Ernesto, 4.Ruben has worked at some of the biggest dive shops in San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, like Amigos del Mar, Aqua Dives Belize, Ambergris Divers, Belize Ocean Diver, Belize Academy of Diving. With all his experience, ideas and dreams, he is now providing the best service ever. Belize is an English/multilingual country situated between Mexico, Guatemala and the Caribbean sea. It is surrounded by mountains, savannas, coral beaches, hundreds of islands or cayes (pronunced "keys"), and the largest Barrier Reef in the northern hemisphere, or the second longest in the world (wow!!). Now you probably have some idea where Belize is, but where is San Pedro "la isla bonita"? San Pedro
San Pedro "la isla bonita" (Madonna's hit) is a little town
located in the middle of Ambergris Caye. Ambergris Caye is the largest
of all cayes and is actually a continuation off the Yucatan Penninsula
in Mexico. Here most dive sites are within 5 minutes boat drive from
your hotel (or any hotel). The dive sites are marked with mouring buoys
and the bottom formation is spouring finger canyons starting at 40feet/12meters.
The average dive profile is 70feet/21meters for 40 minutes based on
dive computer's mulitlevel dive. There are more than 40 different dive
sites to chose from and one of them is the famous Marine Reserve Hol
Chan and Shark Ray Alley which is only 10 minutes from shore.
How to get to Belize?
There are daily flights flying from Houston and Miami into Belize International
Airport. San Pedro is about 58km northeast of Belize city and it is
only 15 minute flight with breathtaking view from the International
Airport, or 2 hour boat ride from the Belize City.
