hockeymom71 Posted January 10, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Hi. I am an arachnophobe and we are going to Belize in April. I started doing research for excursions and I noticed people posting some pictures of large spiders there :eek: Should I just stay on the ship?

Lard Greystoke Posted January 11, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi. I am an arachnophobe and we are going to Belize in April.

I would recommend just staying away from areas of vegetation where they spin their webs. I don't recall seeing a spider over six trips to the Caribbean, and I like spiders.

hockeymom71 Posted May 1, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted May 1, 2016 For those of you who are like me, and hate spiders - I'm glad I didn't go on the cave tubing tour. We met someone who did, and they said a tarantula was in the middle of the trail they walked on and the guide picked it up! Yikes!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeepenfun Posted May 2, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 2, 2016 We were just there a week and a half ago for cave tubing and yes i remember seeing pictures while doing research for excursions about big spiders. they are black tarantulas. I dont like spiders either but I still walked along the trail to the river and the tour guide and I were deliberately searching for them. We didnt see any or any trace of them though. I was just looking to photograph one close up. I'm a hobbyist photographer and really wanted to find one to photograph up close. tarantulas are harmless anyway.
