We went to Belize this summer on the Dream. We did the snorkel and breach break from the ship. It was excellent! We were able to snorkel at the best place we have ever seen! The guides were wonderful. After the snorkel, we took a ride to a private beach. There was a free open bar on the way to the beach. Once on the beach, you could purchase lunch and drinks. There were plenty of lounge chairs, kayaks, and a beach to hang around on. They even supplied floats to float on. After the beach, it was once again open bar back to the ship. We took shower, then took the boat into the village. We went to the chocolate factory, made chocolate bars, had chocolate shots, and purchased several chocolate items. We walked in the village for about an hour, and went back to the ship. Looking forward to returning.

Yes, they had some when we were there.

Yes, and there are tons of chocolate things to buy like chocolate tea, chocolate lip gloss, and chocalate healing cream. There also have from time to time free samples to try the chocolate bars. I could have spent a fortune in this store.

We just returned. The kids liked it, but it was not as big a deal as we thought. It only takes like 15 minutes. They have liquid chocolate they put into a mold. They then let you put what ever you want in the bar, walnuts, almonds, or several other choices. They then let it sit, and wrap it for you like a regular bar. There is a lot of neat chocolate stuff to purchase. It was fun, but after about 15 to 20 minutes, you are done. Oh, and the tastes are wonderful!

According to the email I got, that is correct $20 for 3 bars. I will be there in two weeks and will let you all know how it goes.

We like to snorkel on a lot of our excursions. My daughter found shams for beach towels. They are used with a lot of swim teams. My husband is 6'2" and it works great on him. The fold up really small and come in a small plastic case. The case is about 12 inches by 2 inches. Takes up a lot less room than a beach towel, and they dry quickly. We found them from swimoutlet.com. I am sure a lot of the swim places sell them.

Thanks, I sent an email to the address in New York, and the forwarded it Belize. I was able to email the store in the village. They said they make candy bars all day long, so we just need to stop by. I cannot wait to do this!

It looks like we are under the dinning room, so hopefully it will be ok. Guess I better pack some earplugs to be on the safe side.

We are scheduled on the Dream in a Cove balcony. What cabin were you in? I thought these were supposed to be good cabins.

The above website is for New York. Any suggestions?

We are trying to see how we can get to tour the chocolate place and make our own candy bars. Is this all located in the village? I cannot find much on the internet. Any help would be appreciated.
