Despite several clouds hanging over our September Celebrations, Oceana in Belize is proud to be the primary sponsor of the Southside Masqueraders Carnival Group, and encourages all Belizeans to come out and enjoy the festivities of Carnival, 2011.

 Expected to be over 150 members strong, the Southside Masqueraders will be exhibiting an undersea theme – “Under the Atlantis.” It will feature King Triton, who represents the leader of the underwater kingdom, joined by his Queen Ariel, protector of the coral and all the animals and sea creatures in our reef. Finally there is Queen Ursula; the wicked witch which represents the threat of oil that could destroy everything in our reef.
