NOAA Coral Bleach Watch Coral Bleaching Thermal Stress Outlook for Belize Indicate NO Stress! This is great news for Belize reefs. Thankfully the waters cooled off quickly last year and the corals returned to normal healthy browns and greens! If you are visiting the reefs in Belize please contact us so we can send you a Belize Coral Watch Program so you can complete surveys while you are snorkeling or diving and help identify resilient reefs! So far this year, we have reports of 93 turtles throughout the country! 54 of these have been hawskbill, 19 green, 18 loggerhead, 1 leatherback, and 1 unknown! 5 of the reports have been of stranded turtles. Remember, if you have observed a turtle while in Belize be sure to tell us by filling out our In-Water Turtle Observation form under the tab 'Submit Report' or email us! |
