Snake Cayes Vacation Guide
The Snake Cayes lie in the Port Honduras Marine Reserve, located north of Punta Gorda Town. Established in 2000, the Reserve is recognised for its high biodiversity and serves as habitat for various endangered species, including the West Indian Manatee, the American saltwater crocodile, and the Morelet's crocodile.
There are 135 small mangrove islands in the area, including the Snake Cayes, which are located on a fringe coral reef system and are home to abundant species of coral (including fan, brain, and fire coral), sponges and crabs, lobster, and numerous fish, including grunts, parrot fish, trumpet fish, blue tang, snapper, angel fish, and yellow-tail damsel fish.
The Reserve is managed by TIDE (Toledo Institute for Development and the Environment) and their work in protecting the Reserve has successfully reversed the decline in species, coral degredation, and the sea grass beds.
