Trip Overview

Lovers of the sea: enjoy a week of island-hopping off the coast of Belize! The world's second largest barrier reef is dotted with tiny cayes forming the ultimate sea- kayaking playground. Our trip combines just the right amount of time for kayaking, snorkelling and relaxing in the crystal clear blue waters of Belize. Our local crew, support boat and one- and two-person kayaks are sure to make even the most inexperienced paddler an expert in no time! Join us as we paddle and snorkel through this tropical paradise.

A fairly active trip for the ocean enthusiast. Plenty of time for snorkelling and relaxing. No previous experience required. There is a support boat, so you can kayak as much or as little as you choose.

Itinerary & Departure Dates

Day 1 - Arrive Belize City

Day 2 - Placencia. We depart Belize City for the coastal town of Placencia. Our afternoon is spent getting acquainted with this charming town and its golden beach. Enjoy fresh seafood for dinner at a local restaurant.

Day 3 to 6 - Island Hopping. We depart Placencia by motorboat for our kayaking start point, which varies according to local conditions. We spend the next 4 days kayaking between islands including possible stops in the Silk Cayes, Pumpkin Caye and Sapadillo Cayes. The exact cayes visited may vary, as we want to avoid the crowds. Enjoy approximately 2 to 4 hours per day kayaking to our destination, with plenty of free time to snorkel, relax on the beach, explore, read or do more paddling around the islands. We sleep on the islands in tents, or if you prefer, under the stars! All meals are included during these days and your diet will consist of plenty of fresh fish, with fruit and vegetables. In April you have the chance to spot Whale Sharks. These gentle giants are the world's largest fish and are harmless to humans. 		Day 7 - Placencia. After a morning paddle or snorkel, we return to Placencia for a well-deserved freshwater shower, dinner and a real bed at our comfortable seaside hotel.

Day 8 - Depart Belize City. We take an early morning flight to Belize City to connect with your international flight.
