We just returned from a Western Caribbean cruise that included the port of Belize. We booked the shark ray alley and sightseeing tour through RCI and it was WONDERFUL!!!
I don't know if the other cruise lines offer this, but it is a must do!! We took about a 45 min. speed boat ride through mangrove keys and beautiful water to the barrier reef. We snorkeled there for around an hr. not sure of time but it was nice. The reef is beautiful and has lots of fish, stingrays, coral, etc. We boarded our boat again and continued on to San Pedro, where we had lunch that was included at this wonderful open air bar and still had about 1 1/2 hrs. to walk around the town. The town is very primitive with sand, dirt streets but I enjoyed the street vendors and small stores. Very beautiful island and not commercialized.
Other passengers went on some of the Belize city tours or river tour and were disappointed but this excursion was better than we had expected. It is expensive, like the others, but was worth it. The highlight of our cruise. E-mail me if you have any other questions. I justed wanted others to know about this since we were so hesitant about what to do in this port.
