Caye Caulker is a tiny coral island off the coast of Belize, accessible only by water taxi or small plane. Thought to be the place where sailors once stopped to caulk their boats, the calm, open waters of this island are now perfect for snorkeling. The Caye Caulker Marine Reserve is the world’s second longest barrier reef – home to many species of coral, fish and other marine life. In addition to snorkeling, Caye Caulker also offers manatee tours, sea kayaking lessons, wind surfing and sailing – the perfect destination for the water sports enthusiast.

Caye Caulker is a great great place to visit. 45 mins on a boat from Belize City, it's a little tropical island paradise, with no cars allowed, you have to get around the island on golf cart or bicycle (or walk of course).
The vibe of relaxation quickly washes over you, and in no time you'll be dangling your feet in the Caribbean, sipping a spiced rum and wondering why you bothered booking a flight back home.
