The image I had in mind was:-
[Linked Image].

It shows how strong the tidal currents are through the split. Since the hurricane it's scoured out to about 50' deep.

Thanks islabonita - I'd forgotten that I already had an account there.

Awesome aerial photo Pedro.. wow , just wow.

Well I want to snorkel as much as possible and relax but 2 hours of walking around in the hot sun is not appealing to me.

Awesome picture of the split Pedro 2, glad you found it.

Go to the Split. Takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the water taxi stand. Unless you stop at the Rainbow for the best shrimp burrito you can imagine and get caught up in the amazing view at the Rainbow.

Go to the Split. Snorkel, sunbathe, drink and enjoy a breathe taking view. You will be glad you did.

It is a great day trip and there really isn't all that much walking.

From what I've heard, a couple of hours (at least) in Caye Caulker sounds like a slice of heaven. Thanks for the great info on this board!


So you're saying my dh and I can take a water taxi to CC for $15?

So there is no need for a guide at this split? water safe? we will have snorkeling vests on.

Veeeeerrrrrrrryyyyyyy cool picture, Peter.

I made a trip over there one time last year. The current was rushing! I'd jump in at the shore and whoooooosh, I was getting back out on the other side of the bar. Scampering back and doing it all over again. Must have done it 10 times. My friends had a mighty good laugh at my expense, not that I minded a bit.

A fish and a bird can fall in love, but where will they build their nest?

Presumably the current changes direction and strength with the tides?
