I remember Caye Caulker and the Lazy Lizzard from about 12 years ago. We had a great time. Best snorkling excursion we ever experienced.

We have snorkeled many places, but that blue hole and coral reef was the best. Saw a moray eel and swam over a herd of eagle rays. Many other fish, rays, sharks.. Beautiful.

We took a cruise that stopped in Belize several years ago. We ended up taking the water taxi to Caye Caulker. Spent several hours on the island and ate at the Rainbow Grill & Bar right over the water. It was one of the best days I've ever had.

As a Belizean, I don’t really enjoy going to Caye Caulker or San Pedro. It isn’t the true belizean experience, only the washed up tourist hotspots. If you are one to enjoy the beach and simply wandering around on the sand then by all means it is for you. But if you want to meet Belizeans, eat really belizean food and experience the true country, then it is better to go to the mainland. Even the mainland has places that are touristy, it is a country that relies on tourism. I appreciate your video Sir, you always do an excellent job.

The key is dont fly into belize City in the afternoon and get stuck for the night. Go directly from the airport to the port. Stay inside the port area which is nice and has some very good places to eat. Do not go outside the port area. Belize city isnt a place to mess around in. The islands are very nice though. Also the port is where you catch buses to other parts of belize. I went with the intention of going to Flores for tikal and working my way back from there seeing some of the maya sites in Belize. After the bus ride and asking many travelers in flores, they said go to Antigua guatamala. I did and loved it. From the bus several of the towns I went through in Belize with the sites I wanted to see were pretty bad. Many will say yeah but its doable but doable and where you really want to holiday are 2 different things. Guatamala city was another place that was unsafe. Infact both countries are more like little somewhat safe places in a sea of not so safe places. I havent gone back to lower then mexico in central America since my trip there but have been to south america and Europe 3 times each and mexico a handful of time and africa. I think that about tells you where I think my money is better spent.

I think if it is daylight and you're not stupid, you can navigate some of Belize city with few or no issues. We went and walked around the city a little. There isn't anything really worth going too far into the city that's for sure. But regardless of where you travel, you have to be aware of your surroundings or your become vulnerable.

@@valtracy17 I always ask. I asked where I could go that evening. I was told the park next to the hotel. That was it. I also asked about walking to the port. It was maybe a mile. She said no take a cab. Just cause you get away with something 1 time doesnt make it any less dangerous. Its an odds game. You keep taking bad odds and you will lose at some point. Lets also factor in Belize and guatamala are not that cheap. For what you spend, you can be in much nicer accommodations in much nicer cities that are much cheaper. Per day Portugal, spain, the Balkans, Greece, and even Austria are comparable to the money spent and a lot nicer and safer. Almost all of south america is better bang for the buck with more to see. Take Ecuador where you can be on the Pacific Coast, go up the rain forest, cloud forest, high Andes, cloud forest, then Amazon jungle in 2 day on a bus. Plus ruins and a bunch of native cultures. Peru from seashore to incredible gorges to high Andes to cloud forest to Amazon river. Chan Chan, paracas, moche, chachacoya, inca, hauri, tawanaka, nazca, coral, and so many ruins. Modern day native americans still with old culture everywhere. Pretty safe. Great bus system. Great cheap flights in country. Places like rainbow mountain, Laguna 69 and all kinds of pretty places. Mexico is in a class all it own. Very safe in the south out side of cancun. Even central mexico is safe as is mexico City. Many pretty colonial and renaissance, native American cities and some really great nature. Palenque and Sam cristabol in the south are amazing. Go up to the beaches by merida or the Pacific coast if you like beaches. Much more mexico culture then cancun and that area.
