rlkubi Posted February 4, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 4, 2010 We were on the Valor last week and used Coral Breezes for Belize. The Bannister Beach Break and Manatee Watch. We had a great time and I would recommend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_In_Maine Posted February 6, 2010 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Were you able to see any manatees? My DD is really interested in seeing them. How was the snorkeling? Thanks, Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Tee Posted February 6, 2010 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Are you able to go to the beach only? Without the snorkeling/manatee watch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_In_Maine Posted February 6, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I know that you don't have to do the snorkeling, but the tour I'm looking at everyone does the manatee watch. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahlulla-Hula Posted February 7, 2010 #5 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Jan_In_Maine - you are correct. The first stop is Bannister where those who don't want to snorkel can get off the boat and start enjoying the beach. After the snorkeling trip, everyone is at the beach for 1.5 hours or so. The spot to see the manatees is on the way back to the port, so everyone does this. I think it is hit or miss if you see them or not, but we got lucky and saw about 5 or 6. They were mostly just below the surface of the water, so we saw pretty much just a form, but one did get near the boat so we were able to see it pretty well. I wasn't necessarily looking forward to this part of the excursion, but it turned out to be pretty neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
