Just eight miles off the coast of Belize City lies St. George’s Caye. This quiet and historic island feels worlds away from the bustle of the mainland. Though it may not be as frequently mentioned as larger islands like Ambergris Caye or Caye Caulker, and takes a bit more planning to get to, trust us when we say it’s just a vibrant.

Ever visited someplace where time seems to slow down and all worldly worries seem to fade away? Experience just that on idyllic St. George’s Caye.
