PamIam Posted March 29, 2007 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2007 We have booked a snorkel trip through Star Tours and will have some extra time on Caye Caulker. Does anyone have a recommendation where we can get a bite of lunch? We sail on April 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overwhelmedwithoptions Posted March 29, 2007 #2 Share Posted March 29, 2007 We were just there on March 13 and our lunch was inluded. We ate at the Tropical Paradise Hotel. It is a yellow and orange building located right by the docks. The food was really good and there was a large variety. Don't panic when you see the prices, they are in Belize dollars. So a chciken sandwich might say $10, but it is really only $5 american. They did accept us currency but they had limited amounts of change so try to bring smaller bills.

OttoCal Posted March 30, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Not entirely sure of the name of the place, possibly the Rainbow, but it is a place with a deck over the water and they had the most amazing lobster nachos. To be washed down with the local Belikin Beer, of course! In Caye Caulker, I believe the general rule of thumb is- if the place looks a little sketchy, it probably has the best food!! And that includes the guy on the street selling bbq from a cart! (Yes, I'm serious here!). They aren't entirely thrilled about taking credit cards in all of the stores, and US cash is fine, but you will get change in BZ$, so do be sure to have smaller change. There are some great bargains to be had on the Island, take a look for the tropical shirts and print tops for men and ladies with fun prints. Bathrooms may not be to the quality you expect, bring a pack of tissues to use as TP in a pinch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tishie58 Posted April 12, 2007 #8 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Beautiful pictures of the island. I am looking forward to my tour I booked in August to Bannister Island even more now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
florida cruiser girl Posted April 16, 2007 #9 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Beautiful pictures of the island. I am looking forward to my tour I booked in August to Bannister Island even more now... Bannister Island is a different island than Caye (Key) Caulker, just an FYI. Bannister is a Carnval excursion & Caye Caulker must be booked independently. We LOVED our day on the Caye, ate at Rainbow...yummy & soo inexpensive! Very quaint, personable island, no pushy people, very laid back...what a great day & pictures that look like a calendar!
