Belize Beach Vacations

Caye Caulker (cont)
 


Caye Caulker BelizeAs with Ambergris Caye, the Belize Barrier Reef is much closer to Caye Caulker than further south in the Hopkins/ Placencia areas, so diving and snorkeling are a little less expensive than in more southern areas.  Also, most divers and snorkelers visit the Blue Hole from Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker (also Turneffe and Lighthouse Atolls).

Ruins and jungle trips are also available from Caye Caulker during your Belize beach vacation, but require a boat or plane ride into the mainland first. No beaches that slope to the sea. (The entire island is pretty much a beach, but a seawall separates it from the Caribbean.)

Lodging options are much more limited on Caye Caulker than Ambergris Caye, and Caye Caulker is more "laid back" than Ambergris, with a Rastafarian undernote to the mostly Mestizo culture.  (Recommended Caye Caulker Resorts and Hotels)

Caye Caulker reminds me a little of Key West about 20 years ago.
