Caye Caulker

This is the beach side, facing the Caribbean sea of the hotel that I stayed at, Island Magic. This place is super nice and updated

Just so beautiful and relaxing! This is another view of the beach from my hotel, Island Magic.

The only beer brewed in Belize, Belikin

Belize hasn't jumped on the craft brew train like the US, so you'll only find Belikin beer as their domestic beer. But you can get imported beer like Heineken and Guinness, plus all the liquor. I think it tastes similar to Rolling Rock, but at like 4% alcohol

Caye Caulker airport

This is the cutest and most quaint airport! The runway is dirt and only the small, 12 seater planes can fly in. The 30 minute plane ride was a little intense because is was cramped, bumpy, loud, hot, and lacked air. But was a fun and memorable experience none the less!

View from my room, Island Magic, Caye Caulker

This is a very nice and updated hotel located at the beginning of the main street/front street on the island. I did swim in the pool and hung out at the beach bar often drinking rum & OJ while munching on shrimp ceviche.

Caye Caulker

I loved the mix of updated and traditional places to stay on the island. Belize is one of the places where you don't have to plan your whole trip out ahead and can chose where to go and stay once you get there. So, there are a lot of backpackers that come through.

A fun place to stay on Caye Caulker

I did not stay here, but I loved the bright colors of this place. I also like how the hotels here encourage socialization among guests and people on the street by having hammocks outside each room.

Cuba Cubana on Caye Caulker

This place always had a pig on the grill every night and I have no idea why I never ate there, but I will have to change that the next time I'm on the island.

Fresh seafood at Rosies, Caye Caulker

I absolutely love this place! The seafood is freshly caught that day from local fisherman. You get to choose your meal of choice off this table and they'll throw it on the grill for you.

The High Temple, Lamanai

One of the many Mayan sites around Belize, located in the north and takes an hour boat ride to get to. There are only a few temples at this site, but this temple is one of the steepest out of all the sites I visited to climb.

This is a re-creation of the original carving, which is preserved behind it.

Me, being a total tourist

I really enjoyed ziplining here as it was a compact park, so you just kept ziplining and was located near the cave tubing site. The road to get there was my least favorite as it was long and filled with pot holes and rough gravel.

I got a sugar cane!

I have never seen a sugar cane field, so I was happy when our guide, Major Tom, was willing to stop and let me check it out. He wacked down a stalk for me so I could snack on it.

Rendezvous Caye

This is probably one of the tiniest islands you can visit. I stopped here on the first night of my 3 day sailing trip with Raggamuffin Tours. It measures about a total of 1400 Sq. feet and is a nice place to snorkel.

Tobacco Caye

Here are some structures found on another tiny island/Caye in Belize. I stopped here on the 2nd night of my 3 day sailing trip with Raggamuffin Tours. There are several people that live here and manage it. It's open to the public, so you can rent a bungalow or dock your boat.

Tobacco Caye

This island is very rustic and is surrounded by Conch shells. It is a great place to snorkel because it has a nice shallow area and calm water.

Conch shells, Tobacco Caye

So many Conch shells were at this place that they pile them up to make a water bar around the dock.

Sunset at Tobacco Caye

Such a pretty view! I arrived here on the Ragga Queen with Raggamuffin Tours on my 3 day sailing trip.

The little shack at Tobacco Caye

I don't think this structure is used anymore, but definitely adds character to this rustic place.
