Caye Caulker

There is a beautiful island in Belize called Caye Caulker. It is just a tiny island that takes less than 15 minutes to walk to the opposite side. I was fortunate to spend my birthday there last year as part of my trip to Central America.

You catch then ferry from Belize City and it takes roughly 45 minutes. We took the ferry at sunset and the sky was incredible to see.

Once you arrive at Caye Caulker there are plenty of options for things to do or if you prefer to relax and do not much at all, that is always a good choice too.

• Try stand up paddleboarding

• Hire a bottomless canoe - check out the huge starfish, and fish. The water is clear so you can see everything

• Morning yoga at Namaste Cafe

• Find the most delicious chocolate smoothie at the Belize Chocolate Company

• Renting a bike is an option however the island is tiny so you can walk around it just as quickly

• Catch the free water taxi to Koko King for a cocktail, music, swim, or tanning on the white sand beach

• Day trip on a boat - many companies to choose from. Experience snorkelling in crystal blue water

• Scenic flight over the heart in the Blue Hole. Expensive but you must see it. You only live once

• Watch the sunset from The Split
