Belize with a 6 & 13 year old, what to do?

[RDR11]

We will be in Belize in August with a 6 & 13 year old. Looking for family friendly excursion. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

We have done the cave tubing there. You have about a 45 minute bus ride, some hiking through the jungle, and then the cave tubing. It was really fun and I bet the kids would love it.

I don't remember the name of the company, we booked it on the ship.

Thanks Whittyone. I will look into that. I'm just not sure how the 6 year old will do.

Thanks Whittyone. I will look into that. I'm just not sure how the 6 year old will do.

If the 6 year old likes the water, tubing will be cool.

Otherwise, you're left with snorkeling/beach excursions to local cays or Maya Ruins tours, which may not be all that exciting for either child.

 

There is a local beach, Cucumber Beach, about a 20 minute taxi ride from the tender pier. It's man made, and used by locals. Some pictures and info here. http://www.oldbelize.com/
