Trip review - Caye caulker

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone I met in Caye Caulker for making our trip so special. Every local we met had a heart of gold genuinely kind, welcoming, and friendly. We had so many memorable conversations about life, politics, the weather, and everything in between. Those little interactions ended up being some of my favorite parts of the trip. We stayed at Palmetto Beach in Caye Caulker and had such a wonderful time exploring the island. We got to swim with nurse sharks and stingrays, which was definitely a highlight!
We ate incredible fresh seafood almost every day Kareem’s, Esters, and Pelican Bar were some of our favorites. For coffee, we loved Weezie’s and Ice N Beans.
We also went snorkeling with Salt Life Eco Tours, who were wonderful and incredibly accommodating with me and my 5-month-old baby. It made the experience so much easier and more enjoyable.
A few other highlights:
- Yoga at Ceibo with an incredible instructor
- Ceviche and drinks at Sip N Dip
- Drinks and island vibes at Lazy Lizard
Our final day at Bounty Bay Beach Club, which was absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and the perfect way to end the trip. Caye Caulker was everything we hoped for and more. The people, the food, the water, the slower pace it was such a special experience.
Thank you to everyone who made our time there so memorable. Until next time, Caye Caulker! 🇧🇿

Copal Tree Lodge/Punta Gorda

My husband and I are looking to explore more of Belize and journey down to Punta Gorda. Copal Tree Lodge sounds and looks amazing - I really appreciate that they can organize so many activities and have much available to do on site. However, I really do want to see and experience the town of PG. Is Copal Tree a bit of a drive out of town, has anyone on this sub stayed before and can share their experiences? Thanks!

Sargassum

I want to go to Belize this winter. It hear about how bad the seaweed is on the beaches. Is that for all the beaches or are done better than others?

Critique my travel plan

My wife and I are headed to Belize this December, and would love some feedback on the itinerary. We are cobbling together, bonus points if there are any particular hotels you'd recommend! We are late thirties and early '40s. I don't drink, she will enjoy one or two but we're early to bed. Looking for a mix of some adventure and some chill out. Any help is super appreciated :)

Suggests for trip in March 2027

I'm in early planning stages for a trip with my father. He will be 85 in good shape but not too adventures. This will be his first trip outside the USA.I been to Belize several times while I like San Pedro, it can be too much at times. I own some land near Placencia and would like to show him my plan for retirement down there. The current plan is two days in San Pedro and then 4 days Placencia, but now I been thinking of swapping out San Pedro for caye Caulker instead.

Any suggestions for lodging or things to do on Caye Caulker or do you think San Pedro is a must see. Dad is mellow , sit a bar and people watch all day kind of guy.

Still deciding if we should rent a car or find a driver for a trip to Spanish landing, I would like to talk to some home builders when I'm down there.

Thanks
