we used amigos del mar. they made 2 different snorkle stops and it was brilliant!
we say sharks, stingray, eels, baracudas, and a bunch of huge big lipped fish that looked like cartoons!

All the dive shops do snorkeling trips. If you want your own boat and little tour let me know. My husband runs tours on his baot. Trolling on the way to Caye caulker is fun.

Don't forget maybe going in a glass-bottomed boat. One or two on the island. You still do the snorkels just the same.

Sorry BamaB's my captain has since passed away, but many of the guides can take you on a variety a trips,so if you know what you want to do then they will take you - otherwise they will go where they want to take you. No Worries - everywhere is beautiful.
We did use Amigos Del Mar //ambergriscaye.com/amigosdive/index.html
//ambergriscaye.com/pages/town/fishing.html
to rent our flippers so we did not have to carry any and they are a big outfit so we went with them for our night dive/snorkel at Hol Chan. It is awesome. Many people don't do this tour because you can't drink all day and then swim safely at the reef! But I don't drink so no matter to me and it is different day & night. Amigos can handle your fishing needs, never used them though.

But if you are fishing to eat - we had fun with net caught sardines for snapper, grouper, jack, etc.
Some of my favorite spots for both - Mexico Rocks, Tres Cocos, and towards Caye Caulker there are known fishing areas. Also have lobstered - it is hard work. Shelling is much easier!
Mangrove snapper & shovelhead shark in the murky rivers south of AC - not cool for snorkeling though. Many small shell on the backside of the island & there are tiny uninhabited islands you can stop at for shore lunch & a dip.
What hotel you are staying at may work with specific guides to make your trip easier. Also how much $$ you want to spend is a factor. We stayed in cheap rooms to spend more $ on private boat. If you go with othes it can be cheaper.
Also we did bring some fishing gear - hooks, folding tools, line & they are great gifts and makes sure you don't have to use rusty stuff! It happens fast in San Pedro Town!
One more thing... the weather does play a part in your activities - during a storm you can't always go where you want to go.
Belize it!
