As the most biologically diverse atoll in the Caribbean, Turneffe Atoll is a truly incredible place. It is a combination of healthy coral reef (both fringing reef and patch corals), expansive back reef flats, large lagoon systems, sea grass beds, and extensive mangrove forest. Turneffe is home to 260 fish species, 77 plant species and five fish spawning aggregation sites. The atoll has great economic and sociological significance in Belize as a major commercial fishery and ecotourism center. Only a decade ago, the government of Belize established Turneffe as a Marine Protected Reserve due to its fragility and importance to the local economy.
