Plongée avec Ramon’s Village Divers

Located right in the heart of San Pedro, Ramon's Village Divers operates from a unique single pier at the Ramon's Village Resort. As the oldest and most respected dive centre in Belize, it provides a professional base for divers looking to explore the reefs surrounding Ambergris Caye.

The resort itself is designed with Tahitian-style cabanas built from indigenous materials, nestled among tropical gardens and Mayan sculptures. It offers a calm, established atmosphere that feels a world away from the busier parts of town, despite being only a five-minute walk from most local amenities.

The team at Ramon's Village Divers is recognised for its professionalism and friendly approach. They manage dive operations directly from the resort's pier, ensuring a smooth transition from your accommodation to the boat.

Whether you are a first-time diver or an experienced professional, the staff focuses on providing a reliable and well-organised service. The centre's long-standing reputation in Belize is built on this consistent, high standard of service.

The centre offers a comprehensive range of training programmes. For those new to the water, they provide introductory experiences to get you comfortable with breathing underwater.

For those looking to progress their certifications, the full suite of training is available, allowing you to move from basic levels through to more advanced specialties and professional qualifications.

The centre provides essential shore-based facilities for preparing for your dives. You can find kit-rinsing areas and amenities designed to make the transition from the ocean back to the resort easy.

For those not travelling with a full rig, a range of rental equipment is available on-site. This includes regulators, BCDs, and other essential kit to ensure you are fully equipped for the local conditions.

The reefs around Ambergris Caye are vibrant, characterised by extensive sea fan (Gorgoniidae) gardens, barrel sponges, and staghorn corals. You will often find large schools of Jack (Carangidae), Snapper (Lutjanus), and Parrotfish (Calotomus) patrolling the reef structure.

Pelagic life is a highlight of the area. It is common to encounter various shark species, including Blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus) and Reef shark (Carcharhinus), as well as spotted eagle rays and Southern stingray (Hypanus americanus).

In the sandy areas and near the reef edges, you can spot loggerhead turtles and green turtle. Large Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) and other Grouper (Epinephelus) species are often found stationed near ledges or reef structures.

For those interested in smaller details, the environment supports a variety of life including garden eel (Gorgasia), Angelfish (Pomacanthidae), and Great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda).
