What to do after cave tubing?

[CozGurl]

We are scheduled to cave tube but I don't think it will take the whole time we are in this port. What else could we do afterwards?

Private vendor or ship excursion? Lunch or zip line included? If lunch isn't included and you have a private vendor, have your guide take you to a good non-tourista place. If ship tour and no lunch they'll bring you back to the port with the group. If lunch included, they'll bring you back afterward. So take a few minutes to wander around the port and maybe go to the flea market across the street.

Private vendor and I think they are serving lunch.

 

So shopping/hanging around port is it. No beach around there?

If you are going with a private vendor (like .bz) they feed you and make sure you are back to the port in time to get to the ship on time and possibly do a little shopping there.

 

You have to realize 1) this is a tender port...which means you could possibly be waiting for awhile to get over to the port and also coming back to the ship. 2) The caves are about 1 hour away in each direction. So, it makes for a pretty long day in the first place. 3) Always gotta factor in "all aboard" time, which is 1/2-1 hour before sailaway.

 

We've done the cave tubing twice now and love it, but not a whole lot of time between arriving back in port until time to get on the ship.

 

No, there's not any beaches anywhere accessible without getting on a boat to get to in Belize.

When we did cave tubing there really wasn't that much time afterwards--our tour included a lunch and was maybe 6 hours total. We did a little shopping at the port afterwards; since it is a fairly long tender ride, that took a while too.

 

I don't think there are any near by beaches.
