the4happys Posted February 18, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Can someone recommend a beach/snorkel shore excursion in Belize? Not happy with what Carnival is offering. We will be on the Sunshine in a couple of weeks. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted February 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2014 DW and SIL are looking for the same thing for their May Sunshine cruise. At one time Coral Breeze had a good Caye Caulker/Shark-Ray Alley excursion out of the Wet Lizard. But WL disassociated themselves with CB as over the past couple of years, there have been many issues with that excursion. Can't find a replacement. Any ideas, anyone?

brookeq Posted February 18, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2014 We went to goffs Caye. They took those who wanted to snorkel out to the reef by boat and the you just swam in. The beach area was very nice. We lived out day there. We used island marketing to go. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app DW dk'd the IM idea. :D Food and beverages are extra, meaning someone has to carry a bag and someone has to watch the bag meaning both can't go out together. Additionally, it's "bring your own towel" if you want to lie on the beach. No loungers. I know, picky, picky, but ...:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carla63 Posted February 18, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2014 We just had done the Shark Ray Alley with Coral breeze the first week of Feb. I have to say they were a great bunch of guides and we enjoyed our day with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribbeanqueen03 Posted February 27, 2014 #7 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Snorkeling wonders of the barrier reef is on our cruise in December and looks awesome. I plan on taking my underwater camera for lots of photos. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterstale Posted February 28, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 28, 2014 There are ZERO beaches near the area where the ship docks. If that is all you see of Belize, you will be VERY disappointed. Get out of the dock area as quickly as you can. You can fly Tropic Air to Ambergris Caye - you can book a reef snorkel with independent companies who will arrange your air for you. You just need to arrange for a taxi to/from Tropic Air. We did this in October and had an AMAZING time. We booked a tour via Grump and Happy Tours - they are #1 on tripadvisor for a good reason but they are not inexpensive. There are other tour operators who are less pricey. You can also just take a ferry to Caye Caulker and go exploring. Whatever you do....GET OUT of the dock area - nasty, nasty, nasty and you'll never see Belize for the beauty it truly has. It makes me crazy when people complain about what a lousy cruise ship stop this is if they never leave the immediate dock area. Not ever cruise ship dock has instant good times the minute you disembark - you have got to GET OUT THERE :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterstale Posted February 28, 2014 #9 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Sorry - forgot to say ANCHORS - since this is a tender stop. Get off the tender and get outta there! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
