Caye Caulker

I took a direct bus from Flores to the island Caye Caulker. The border crossing was hassle free even I had to pay 50 USD for an antigen test. Which I knew and therefore wasn’t shocked anymore.

On the island I found myself surrounded by creole people who had a super crazy Jamaican-like language.

I skipped the golden standard accompaniment and went directly to the cheapest hostel on the island where I staid 3 nights for 10 USD per night.

Already on the second day I did the full day snorkel tour which unquestionably makes it into my top 5 list of things I did in my entire travels. Swimming and diving underneath docents of nurse sharks which some were almost 3 meter long. Feeding some giant tarpon fishes as well as birds, snorkeling in the most beautiful coral reefs I’ve ever seen (I’ve already been to the great barrier’s). Lots of different fishes from small to big in all the existing colors. These were only a few things we could do on this amazing snorkel trip.

I occasionally met the Israelis I met in the ferry to Caye Caulker but mostly discovered the island by myself where I could enjoy the peaceful coastal walks around the island. Due to the fact that the island is super small there aren’t any cars, all you see on the streets are golf carts and occasionally a cheep who spreads sanitizer liquids into the environment.

Curfew on the mainland started at 7pm on the islands at 8pm hence no party life thus the tourists came here only for some day time activities.Leer más
