Stephen Tidmore Photography : Photo Keywords : central america : Tobacco Caye, Belize, March 2004 - A dive shop sits over the water off the beach of Tobacco Caye, a tiny, five-acre island perched practically on top of the Belize Barrier Reef. The Belize Barrier Reef is a 300 km (185 miles) section of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System which is continuous from Cancun on the northeast tip of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico and continues through to offshore Guatemala, making it the second largest coral reef system in the world after the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. It is Belize's top tourist destination, attracting almost half of its 260,000 visitors, and vital to its fishing industry.
