Info on Old Belize

[coloradocruiser3]

Anyone know how far it is from where the ships tender to Old Belize? Is it a worthwhile place to spend a few hours? And are there taxi's or other transportation from the pier to Old Belize? Thanks for any info!

I got this website from a fellow poster on these boards when I asked a similar question.

 

Have not seen any first hand accounts of things to do here, but there is enough info on the website to make me want to know more!!

[NEW 2 CRUISIN]

These attractions are listed on their website as "Coming Soon".

 

Anyone know if they are open yet or still on schedule???

 

Zip-Line Tour

 

This one-of-a-kind zip thrill will live up to its name. Starting 50 feet up, you and your partner will traverse 600 feet across beach and water at an excitingly fast speed, with ample room to stop at the finish.

Projected date of completion: October 2007.

 

Reef Pool

 

Our reef pool is a 750,000 gal salt water pool with over 100 tons of natural shaped limestone. The idea is to create a snorkeling tour that mimics the reef in colors and diversity of aquatic species. Can’t make it to the reef? We will bring the reef to you.

Projected date of completion: December 2007.

 

Slippery Conch

 

Rising 50 feet from the heart of Cucumber Beach, the Slippery Conch will have you screaming in delight, as you slide its 80 foot long chute and into the water.

The waterslide’s projected Date of Completion: December 2007.
