The Sapodilla Cayes (Spanish: {{lang|es|Cayos Zapotillos}}, {{lang|es|Cayos Sapodilla}} or {{lang|es|Cayos Sapote}})[3] are an uninhabited atoll in the Gulf of Honduras. They are in the Toledo District of Belize.

Geography

The Sapodilla Cayes are a system of cayes, or low sandy islands, that are part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System.

Disputed islands

They are generally considered to be within the territorial waters of Belize, but Guatemala claims that the Belize–Guatemala maritime boundary is northwest of the cayes.[4] Honduras also lays a claim to the Sapodilla Cayes in its 1982 constitution.[3]

Marine reserve

Sapodilla Cayes Marine Reserve is a national protected marine reserve declared over the Sapodilla Cayes. It was established in 1996 and is administered by the Fisheries Department of Belize.[5]
