Sail to Laughing Bird Caye National Park

Laughing Bird Caye is a marine reserve.  The small island is studded with beautiful palm trees, a powdery white beach and unbeatable snorkeling.

As it is protected it is teaming with underwater life and extremely healthy coral.  It is named after the laughing gull which breeds on the island.

 

In 1996, the Belize barrier reef reserve system was inscribed on the world heritage list with Laughing Bird Caye National Park, designated as one of the premier protected areas within the World Heritage Site.

Hide Away Caye and King Lewey’s Island Combo

Join us on our two Island Hopping Snorkeling Adventure for two completely different experiences. This trip takes place on one of our power vessels depending on the size of the group.

First stop is the peaceful and tranquil island called Hide Away Caye. When we arrive we will snorkel the coral reef which forms the outer rim of a ring of islands called the Pelican Caye Range. Hide Away Caye is in the middle of this ring. The coral there is in pristine condition and there are always lots of fish. It is untouched and unspoiled as very few of the other tour companies go there. After the snorkel we head over to Hide Away Caye for lunch and refreshments.

 

After lunch if you wish to you can go for a stand up paddle or kayak into the mangroves. You have the chance of spotting manatee, all sorts of birds, from Herons to Warblers, to Humming Bees which is the worlds smallest humming bird…this is a bird watchers paradise.

After lunch and kayaking we will head to our second stop, King Lewey’s Island. This is a Pirate themed island with restaurant and bar. King Lewey’s has stunning clear water for swimming, great look out tower for some spectacular views and pictures. It’s really a fun island for the whole group and especially if there are children.

Please note that while we will have our own alcohol and refreshments on board the boat we may not take them onto either of the two islands. Lunch is included but on island is a cash bar for drinks.

Moho Caye Island Hop

Moho Caye is Placencia’s best kept secret! This is without question the prettiest beach out of all the Cayes. Spend a day on the island, swimming, snorkeling, lazing in a hammock or if you’re feeling active a game of beach volley ball.

It’s about a 45 minute boat ride out to the Caye. We will stop for a snorkel in the Lark Caye range along the way.

The island has crystal blue water all the way around and great snorkeling. The beach is powdery white sand and the island is full of palm trees.

Lunch on the island will be beach bbq chicken and pork chops, ceviche and caramelized onion potato salad. We will have fresh baked donuts in the morning and snacks during the course of the day. Trip also includes refreshments, rum punch and a case of beer.
