he exact location of the island is 16°27' North latitude and 88°12' West longitude. Laughing Bird Caye is the southern most island in the central lagoon of the Belize Barrier Reef.
This long narrow isle stands on an elongated ridge of reef known as a faro. A faro is an angular atoll on a continental shelf, also known as a shelf atoll. Like an atoll, a faro is steep sided and encloses a central lagoon. The Laughing Bird Faro is separated from the mainland, the barrier reef and other cayes by deep channels on all sides.
