skya Posted July 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I need a nice beach that isn't too far from the port. The Carnival excursion has a beach/lunch but the reviews are bad. Would love the tubing but who wants to be on a bus for 3 hours. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted July 23, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 23, 2014 The nearest beach to the tender pier is Cucumber Beach in Old Belize. It's about a 15-20 minute taxi ride. Cucumber Beach is a man made beach/lagoon that is used primarily by local Belizeans on weekends. Not everything in Old Belize may be open during week days but I think the bar will be. http://www.oldbelize.com/ All other beach excursions, cruise line or private, are out to various cays. The most popular are about a 15 minute boat ride from the ship. For private excursions it's a 10-15 minute tender ride into Belize City, a wait at the pier, and a 20-30 minute boat ride to the cay. Reverse for return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
