DAY ONE

Your Belize sailing adventure begins in the bright blue waters of Placencia Harbor. A charming, picturesque village, the small town is bordered by a stunning crescent-shaped beach, lined with tall, graceful palms. Vibrant flowers, lush greenery, and quaint stilted houses complete the idyllic tropical scene. The welcoming and friendly locals further enhance the warmth of your visit, making it an unforgettable start to your sailing cruise.

Wippari Cay

This small, 1-acre coral-fringed cay, located about 8 miles from Placencia, is an ideal spot for a first or last night stop. The fishing lodge onshore is private, but for those keen on fly fishing, it’s a great place to connect with one of the renowned Cabral brothers, expert guides who can assist in tracking down the elusive permit.

DAY TWO

Southwater Cay

South Water Caye, a part of Belize’s World Heritage Site, is located on the barrier reef, just north of the quarter-mile-wide South Water Pass. The island is dotted with tall palms and pristine beaches, offering a serene escape. On the caye’s east side, the barrier reef drop-off is close to shore, providing an excellent setting for some of Belize’s top snorkeling and scuba diving. A Belize sailing adventure to South Water Caye is truly unforgettable!

“La Isla Bonita” San Pedro

San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, is the northernmost Caye along the Belize barrier reef. Explore the buzzing little fishing town by foot, or for added fun rent a golf cart. Check out the local arts and craft stalls and enjoy a cocktail at a waterfront bar before returning to the boat for the catch of the day.

St George’s Caye

Steeped in history, it was the first capital of the British settlement. The island is principally home to private families, however it’s a great base for scuba diving, snorkeling, island exploration or beach combing. Enjoy a top notch margarita at the St George’s Caye Lodge before returning to the boat for dinner on deck.

Goff’s Caye

Being just over one acre in size, this is one of our favorite islands because it looks like the thing postcards were made for. Enjoy an afternoon of snorkeling, kayaking, fishing, beach combing or simply relaxing, before dining on your tropical dinner prepared on board by your private chef.
