Marine visit essentials.
Rules & responsible visits
Follow ranger and operator instructions, keep clear of nesting wildlife and avoid touching or standing on coral. Ask BAS about current restrictions before fishing, collecting, launching a drone or arranging any special activity.
Mooring balls & boat arrival
BAS’s published marine guidance directs vessels to contact the Half Moon Caye rangers on VHF channel 16 before mooring or anchoring. Confirm current permissions, suitability and availability; the presence of a buoy is not a booking or assurance of capacity.
Island facilities & arrival guidance →Camping & fees
Half Moon Caye has a campground; the Blue Hole has no land facilities. Ask BAS to confirm camping rules, overnight fees, facilities and availability. Published entrance fees do not establish a camping price or include your operator’s transport charges.
Ask BAS about camping ↗Commercial filming & special permissions
Contact BAS before planning a commercial shoot, drone flight or research activity. Describe the site, dates, crew, equipment and wildlife interactions so the relevant permissions and charges can be confirmed. This demo does not issue permits.
