20-80% bleaching noted around Belize.
I will be staying in Caye Caulker, Belize in mid March. Does anyone know the reef condition off of Belize?
I've read/been told that bleaching has affected more the in shore reefs than outer atolls - like Turneffe/Lighthouse/Half Moon Caye.
I know judging reef quality is all relative to what you have seen. WIth that in mind, if you have any weblinks with recent information or you have dived in the area recently, that would be great. Depth vs bleaching would be good information to know too.
My initial thought is to avoid the Hol Chan Marine Reserve.
