Belize 2004
From June 1-23, 2004, Dee Dee was the teaching assistant for an undergraduate marine
ecology course at ECU. During their stay, the group travelled to three main locations:
Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary, Calabash Caye and Caye Caulker. Cockscomb is
home to the worlds only jaguar reserve. While based at Cockscomb, they visited two
Mayan ruin sites and went cave tubing. Calabash Caye is the island where Dee Dee
conducted her research on fish abundance and biomass. Calabash is part of the Turneffe
Atoll which is approximately 32 miles east of Belize City. Caye Caulker is an island
north of Calabash where the group relaxed before heading home. There they went to
Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark and Ray Alley.
