If you’re looking for a truly unique underwater experience, Isla Marisol Resort has an incredible adventure waiting for you. From March through June, during the full moon, the resort is offering exclusive diving and snorkeling tours to one of the last remaining true underwater spawning sites in the Caribbean – Gladden Spit.
Over the past 28 years, Gladden Spit has gained fame for its extraordinary aggregation of snapper and jack species during spawning season. This natural phenomenon draws not only these vibrant fish species but also larger marine creatures like bull sharks, which seem to act as guardians of the spawning event. While past tours were often marketed as whale shark encounters, Isla Marisol Resort is now proudly promoting this trip as the Snapper Aggregate Tour – a dive into one of the ocean’s most awe-inspiring spectacles.
Although sightings of whale sharks and bull sharks remain possible, the highlight of this tour is the mesmerizing sight of thousands of spawning snapper and jacks. The tour includes two dive sessions and two snorkel sessions at the aggregate site, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in this rare event. Additionally, there’s a bonus snorkel session inside the reef’s shallow waters, where divers often encounter resident loggerhead turtles or graceful stingrays.
Isla Marisol Resort can accommodate up to 30 guests and offers diving across three stunning locations: Gladden Spit, Glover’s Reef Atoll, and the resort’s home atoll. Each site boasts a rich variety of marine life that will satisfy even the most experienced divers.
Don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness one of nature’s most spectacular underwater events. For more information on availability or to book your spot, contact Isla Marisol Resort directly via email or phone and speak with one of their reservation specialists.
See you on the atoll!
