Barefoot Bliss in Belize – 6 Day Superyacht Charter in Belize

Central American bliss awaits in the tropical paradise of Belize. This is home to some of the world’s best snorkelling and diving experiences, and this superyacht charter is all about discovery both above and below the water surface. Nature enthusiasts will revel in the incredible wildlife encounters along the way, while those with hedonistic tendencies will embrace the relaxed beach lifestyle and charming local culture. This is one of the ultimate superyacht destinations for secluded luxury and natural experiences.

Day 1: San Pedro, Ambergris Caye – Caye Caulker

The best way to arrive in Belize is by flying into Belize City, where a short connecting flight will take you to Ambergris Caye. This is where you will begin your Central American adventure onboard your superyacht, and you will do so in thrilling style. Ambergris Caye, the largest island in Belize, is a mecca for water sports and scuba diving with an abundant sea life and the Belize Barrier Reef off its eastern shore. The Hol Chan Marine Reserve is famous for its 18km2 of colourful coral reefs, where you can snorkel with sharks and stingrays. The first day of your superyacht charter will quickly throw you into new adventures and exciting activities.

San Pedro on Ambergris Caye is a picturesque coastal town with sandy streets and wooden houses.

Mesmerising natural experiences await to the north, with Bacalar Chico National Park filled with exotic wildlife while the Chac Balam Mayan ruins offer an insight into the region’s rich history. A short sail will bring you to your overnight stop, Caye Caulker. This is a lovely spot to anchor for the evening and venture into the town to spend a night at one of the local bars.

Day 2: Caye Caulker – Colson Caye

Waking up in Caye Caulker you will enjoy breakfast on the decks of your yacht as you prepare for another day of adventure. Caye Caulker’s proximity to the reef provides you with another opportunity to explore the underwater scenery of Belize. Stepping ashore, the village has a laid-back vibe that will allow you to unwind as you explore the island’s beauty. In the afternoon you will begin your sail towards the charming fishing village of Placencia, stopping overnight in one of the attractive cays for respite as this is the longest cruise on your charter.

Day 3-4: Colson Caye – Placencia

After a leisurely morning enjoying the luxury of your superyacht and a swim in this tranquil cay, you will complete the second leg of your sail to Placencia. The village offers more modern facilities than can be found on some of the other remote islands, including atmospheric coffee shops and access to spectacular dive sites nearby.

The Laughing Bird Caye National Park is one for the adventurous traveller. This is a Central American gem in the Belize Barrier Reef, named after the laughing gull which breeds in the area. Surrounded by deep blue waters on all sides, there are more phenomenal diving experiences to delve into, including a trip to the outer reefs where whale shark dives can be made. Above the water, you can launch kayaks, canoes and other water toys in the large lagoon.

Day 5: Placencia – South Water Caye

You will leave Placencia in the early morning and cruise towards South Water Caye. You will have experienced some incredible dive sites during your charter itinerary so far, but South Water Caye is the crescendo to your underwater adventures. These are some of the world’s best snorkelling waters with a whole menagerie of exciting marine life to be discovered, including nurse sharks, rays, and brightly tinted. There are also luxurious beach resorts in the region where you can berth and step ashore for extra indulgence to top off your charter experience.

Day 6: South Water Caye – San Pedro

Your week in Belize has exposed you to one of the world’s most diverse underwater ecosystems, with unforgettable memories made from your thrilling encounters with Belize’s exotic sea life. On your final day, you will sail back to the buzz of San Pedro where your luxury superyacht charter concludes, but your Central American adventures may well extend.

I absolutely love spending my evenings at Placencia Yacht Club! Caroline is an amazing host and one of my favorite restaurant owners to visit. Every time is special and the food is always delicious and plentiful. Tonight I celebrated my birthday with 16 friends and we had a magical evening. I’ll be back very soon for another birthday celebration and I can’t wait. Whether it’s your first time to Placencia, or you live here, Placencia Yacht Club is a must-visit location.

Geraldine Villa Cardona

I’ve traveled a lot around the world but in few places I have felt the way I did in the Placencia Yacht Club. Not just the atmosphere and the place itself, but Caroline was just a smiling peaceful being. Really hope to be back very soon! Was a fantastic day.

Yacht Charter Vacations

What if you could embark on a journey across the world with your loved ones on a boat or a luxurious yacht of your own? You can picture yourself cruising through the Western Caribbean and Belize on a motor yacht, exploring concealed inlets and private beaches on a sailing catamaran, all while your captain and crew attend to your every need. Chartering a boat can also offer the opportunity to be your own captain, allowing you to sail along the stunning Belize Barrier Reef and hundreds of cayes, following your desired route for the day.

Belize is a fantastic cruising destination that offers endless possibilities for exploration. With hundreds of miles of reef, dozens of cayes , and three offshore coral atolls, you can spend weeks cruising the area and still only encounter a few other boats.

To the south lies Guatemala’s Rio Dulce, which is the ultimate hurricane hole in the region. It is vastly different from Belize in every way possible, offering a unique cruising experience that feels like entering a completely different world.

Difference Between A Yacht And A Boat

Although many boating enthusiasts use the words “boat” and “yacht” interchangeably, the two terms are actually quite distinct. A yacht, for example, is a larger and more luxurious recreational boat or ship. The term “yacht” has Dutch origins and originally referred to a light and fast sailing vessel used by the Dutch navy to capture pirates. In contrast, a boat is typically smaller in size and can range from a fisherman’s boat to a sailboat.

Yachting In Belize – What To Expect

A yacht charter vacation in Belize promises an unforgettable cruising experience with year-round balmy easterly trade winds ranging between 15 and 22 knots, providing calm waters for sailing behind cayes and reefs. The passages are short, and navigation is primarily line-of-sight. It’s advisable to plot courses and pay attention to the charts due to the numerous reefs. Keeping a good bow watch and reading depths based on color changes is also important, particularly due to seasonal changes in sandbars. Even captains with basic skills in coastal navigation can enjoy a Belize yacht charter, and both experienced and novice charterers are drawn to the area’s beauty and unique character, making it one of the best snorkeling and diving locations in the Western Caribbean. Year-round temperatures range from 74°F to 84°F.

A Belize cruising vacation focuses on the superb onboard experience, scenic anchorages behind palm-fringed or mangrove-lined cayes, and fantastic snorkeling and scuba diving in some of the clearest waters you’ll ever see. You can also explore local cuisine and Belizean culture by visiting restaurants on the cayes. However, a Belize yacht charter can offer much more than that. Many guests choose to extend their adventure by taking guided dive excursions to the Great Blue Hole , a geological wonder located within Lighthouse Reef, or sightseeing tours of the Mayan ruins inland.

Anchorages In Belize

If you’re planning to cruise to Belize in your own boar or yacht, there are several anchorages available among the cayes and coastal villages. However, there aren’t many opportunities to refuel, so it’s best to plan accordingly. You can find marinas in Belize City, Ambergris Caye, Caye Caulker, Caye Chapel, Moho Caye, Placencia, and Punta Gorda.

The Belize Barrier Reef offers calm inshore waters without the crashing surf or large swells of the open ocean. It’s also a stunning sight to see as you approach. However, it’s crucial to stay well clear of the reef as there are numerous coral heads dotting the water on the inland side of the reef.

When anchoring, bottom conditions are crucial to consider. There’s mud around Belize City and river mouths, sand around the many cayes further offshore, and grass beds near the inshore cayes. Anchoring in coral is frowned on and should be avoided. If there’s no other option but to anchor in sea grass, make sure the anchor has dug in properly and that you’ve allowed sufficient rope for tide, wind, and wave conditions before leaving the vessel.

Belize, formerly known as British Honduras, is located on the Western Caribbean Sea and shares borders with Mexico and Guatemala. Its main highlight is the impressive 175-mile long barrier reef, the second largest in the world after Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. The underwater scenery here is renowned for being among the best anywhere in the world.

Between the reef and the coastal strip, you’ll find countless uninhabited islands and cays. This is what makes Belize a popular cruising destination, offering numerous secluded anchorages, exceptional diving opportunities, and excellent fishing. Many people choose Belize as an alternative to the crowded Eastern Caribbean. It’s important to note that several navigation lights or marks in the area are either out of order or missing, so it’s advisable to avoid navigating at night. Even during the day, caution should be exercised when navigating the barrier reef area.

When it comes to yachting facilities, Belize has limited options. Belize City provides some repair facilities, good provisions, and a limited supply of hardware, but there is very little yachting equipment available. Due to frequent thefts from boats and lengthy administrative procedures, most boat owners now prefer to avoid Belize City if possible. A new boatyard has been established in the Placencia Yacht Club.

If you plan to explore the interior, which is another major attraction of Belize, a more convenient and secure place to leave your boat is the newly built Cucumber Beach Marina, located just south of Belize City. It has been suggested that this marina also serves as a good base for visiting Mayan sites in Guatemala, such as Tikal .

Entry Requirements For Pleasure Craft

To charter a yacht in Belize without a skipper, you’ll need to fill out an application for a temporary Certificate of Competency and submit it along with a color copy of your passport and a clear head-shot picture. Your application will be forwarded to the Belizean Port Authorities, and the Temporary Certificate of Competency and Disclosure is required for all bareboat charters in Belize.

Belize has implemented a new system called SailClear for Pleasure Vessels that enter our territorial waters. This system is a regional vessel Pre-Notification Arrival System, and is accessible for free through the website sailclear.com To comply with this new system, the master or agent of the vessel must input their voyage data on the website at least 48 hours before arriving in Belize.

The Belize Port Authority has two classifications for pleasure craft: Large Yacht means a vessel measuring fifty (50) feet or more in length and/or ten (10) feet or more in width. Small Yacht means a vessel measuring less than fifty (50) feet in length and / or less than ten (10) feet in width;

If for any reason the master or agent is unable to submit the voyage data through SailClear, they will be required to provide the information upon arrival in Belize. There are four locations with Kiosks where this can be done: Fort George Hotel Marina (formerly the Radisson) – Belize City, Old Belize (Kukumba Beach) Marina – Belize City, Amigos de Mar – San Pedro Ambergris Caye and, Roberts Grove Marina – Placencia.

Arrival Formalities

Advance Notification: When entering Belize’s territorial waters, it is mandatory for all yachts to establish contact with the Belize Port Authority. This can be done either via VHF on Channel 16 or by sending an email to [email protected], providing a “Notice of Arrival” (NOA).

Failure to notify the Port Authority in advance of check-in may result in fines for yacht owners. Make sure to include copies of passports and boat registration along with the notification. Ports of Entry: Foreign recreational vessels are permitted to enter all ports of entry in Belize.

In Belize City and Big Creek, the Customs and Immigration offices are located near the Port Control office. In Punta Gorda, all these offices are situated together in one building near the dinghy dock. However, please note that Punta Gorda is an open roadstead and is only suitable during settled weather. It has been reported that high clearance fees are charged in San Pedro. More Information for Pleasure Vessel Owners and Masters at Belize Port Authority

Areas To Explore

If you’re considering hiring a yacht for your Belize sailing adventure , there are two main sailing areas to explore. The first is inside the barrier reef, an approximately 140 square nautical mile area where the seas are sheltered from the swells of the outer Caribbean. Although the area is poorly charted, you can still rent a bareboat or join a flotilla sailing group to explore this shallow sailing area. To go on a self-directed cruise, you’ll need an RYA Day Skipper or ASA 104 Bareboat certificate. The primary charter bases are Robert’s Grove Marina and Laru Beya Marina, both located on the Placencia Peninsula.

If you’re interested in scuba diving at the Great Blue Hole on Lighthouse Reef, you’ll need a local skipper on board to navigate you safely beyond the Belize Barrier Reef. Underwater obstacles can make navigating this area challenging, and the water is deeper, allowing larger yachts to navigate these waters. However, even a 12-meter yacht can run aground on a subsurface coral head that isn’t marked on the charts. A good source of current events for cruisers in or headed to Belize can be found in the Belize Cruisers Net Forums: https://www.facebook.com/groups/168838740437612

Marine Reserves

Cruisers often find themselves confused and frustrated by the multitude of Marine Reserves in Belize and the fees associated with them. This section aims to provide some clarity on the matter.

One of the primary sources of confusion is a lack of understanding of the location and boundaries of the marine reserves. A map that clearly shows the location of each reserve would be incredibly helpful for cruisers.

The best map, which includes all of the protected areas, including the Marine Reserves, is produced by PACT (Protected Areas Conservation Trust). When you pay your clearance fees in Belize, a portion of those fees go towards the PACT fee, which is then used to fund the various protected areas. Each of these areas, whether on land or sea, is typically managed by a separate entity, although some entities may manage more than one.

Best Time To Charter A Yacht

If you’re planning to charter a yacht in Belize, the best time to do so is between November and May, which is the sailing season. During this time, the weather is settled, and temperatures range between 25-35 degrees Celsius, making it the perfect escape from winter.

Although March and April are cooler, the sailing is still enjoyable, and Belize is a tropical country, so you can expect warm temperatures year-round. For those looking for a unique sailing experience, August and September are said to be the best months. However, it’s important to note that many yacht charter fleets will not be available during this time due to hurricane season, which runs from July to October. If a hurricane is approaching, your holiday will be canceled, and it’s best to avoid the region altogether as there’s no high ground to seek refuge. With storms becoming stronger each year, it’s not worth risking your safety.

When sailing inside the barrier reef, you’ll encounter calm waters and balmy easterly trade winds year-round. Although passages are short and primarily line-of-sight, referencing charts and plotting courses is necessary due to the many reefs in the area. It’s best to avoid Tom Owens Island as it’s difficult to navigate. If you plan to sail outside the barrier reef to Glover’s Reef, Turneffe Reef, and Lighthouse Reef, you’ll need a local skipper.

In Belize, trade winds blow consistently along the coastal cayes for most of the year, providing excellent cruising conditions.

Belize As A Super Yacht Destination

Belize is taking steps to develop the country into a superyacth destination. At a recent roundtable in Belize sponsored by the Tourism Board and BOAT International Media attended by nine charter brokers and managers, key areas to be developed were pointed out. Currently, Belize has inadequate infrastructure to accommodate superyachts, and there is no specific marina dedicated for this purpose. All the delegates unanimously agreed that improvements in this area would be necessary to attract superyachts for extended stays.

All of the attendees were positive about the potential that Belize has to attract superyachts in the future. “There is a lot of offer everybody,” said Denison Yachting’s Rose Jolis. “The trip has been incredible, the people are very inviting and very warm. Of course, there is the reef, which is the main draw for boats, but it is also easy to travel around the country to see archaeological sites, explore up rivers or even go fly fishing.” Another attendee added “You need a clear charter permit, a process that is not overly bureaucratic and a simple registration. You also need an easy way to pay taxes owed and a receipt.”

Another delegate stated that having clear charts and anchorage information for captains was critical. “I had a captain that did have a successful charter here last winter,” explained Casey Noble from Ocean Independence. “However, he told me that having a local dive master on board was the only reason that they knew where they could anchor without getting fined.” And, Burgess’ Charmine du Plessis added that she thought the lack of marina was putting Belize behind other destinations such as Panama and Costa Rica. “Having a state-of the-art marina where you have the infrastructure is hugely beneficial,” she added. “Boats want to know that they can come in, they can provision, and get guests off the boat for land experiences.”

On 29 June 2023 the Belize Cabinet announced that it was taking steps to develop Belize as a yacht and super yacht destination: “To further assist in the protection of the environment and to ensure that standards are implemented for the licensing of marinas, Cabinet approved the drafting of regulations for marinas and for amendments to the Harbours and Merchant Shipping Act. This is for a provision for the creation of regulation of marinas which shall include but is not limited to, the creation of new and existing marinas.  

“Cabinet also approved the establishment of a subcommittee of the Maritime Technical Committee to create legislation for the development of nautical tourism, in particular, the pleasure yachting and super yacht industry in Belize.”  

Superyachts frequent Belize but rarely make the news. Superyacht Samadhi belonging to New York hedge fund billionaire Daniel Loeb had an encounter with the Belize Barrier Reef in 2020.

Calendar of Events Service Providers Create Business Profile Become a Supplier Media Services Advertising Partner Dashboard Some Caribbean islands see almost 'total destruction' after Hurricane Beryl A more complete picture emerged Wednesday of the extensive damage wrought by Hurricane Beryl's trek across the Windward Islands, revealing destruction and at least seven deaths. At least three islands report more than 90% of the homes and buildings either destroyed or severely damaged, the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency reported Wednesday . All three are within the chain of Grenadine Islands, where Beryl roared into the Caribbean on the southern end of the Windwards, between St. Vincent and Grenada. With 19 participating states across the Caribbean , the agency was helping coordinate disaster response on Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines even as it continued to track Beryl’s movements across Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Belize. The eye of Beryl, still a Category 4 storm, raked Jamaica's coast Wednesday afternoon and was expected to pass near the Cayman Islands Thursday morning, before making landfall in the Yucatan on Friday morning. The damage estimates for the Windwards – where Beryl made landfall over Carriacou – are only "a very preliminary look," said Elizabeth Riley, the disaster management agency's executive director. Beryl struck the islands with sustained winds of 150 mph and higher gusts on Monday, and the National Hurricane Center had warned that winds could be up to 30% higher on the tops of hills and mountains. The impacts to the Grenadine Islands are "quite significant," Riley said, leaving residents exposed and vulnerable. Even as recovery efforts began, a tropical wave brought rain and gusty winds Wednesday to the suffering residents. Grenada prime minister discusses damage on Carriacou In a briefing late Tuesday after spending more than two hours in a helicopter provided by the government of St. Lucia, Grenada Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell described "total destruction" on the islands of Carriacou and Petite Martinique. "There's really nothing that can prepare you to see this level of destruction," Mitchell said. "It is almost Armageddon-like, almost total damage and destruction of all buildings. Complete devastation and destruction of agriculture. Complete and total destruction of the natural environment." "There is literally no vegetation left anywhere on the island of Carriacou; the mangroves are totally destroyed, the boats and the marinas significantly damaged," he said. "There is almost complete destruction of the electrical grid system in Carriacou. The entire communication system is completely destroyed." However, Mitchell added, he'd been heartened by the volunteers "showing true Grenadian spirit" by arriving from other less damaged areas in boats and fishing vessels to begin delivering relief supplies to those affected. Hurricane Beryl's fearsome seas As Beryl tears through Caribbean, a drone sends back stunning footage Beryl damage updates The following are the preliminary assessments Riley listed: Carriacou, Grenada The total population of 6,081 has been affected, so shelter is "a significant consideration." Majority of homes and buildings have been extensively damaged Communications have been significantly compromised Petite Martinique, Grenada Estimated 80% of the houses and buildings extensively damaged or destroyed 900 people affected Majority of the island is sheltering in place Canouan, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 100% of the island's population (12,600) has been affected An estimated 90% of the houses were damaged, either extensively or destroyed Police station in Charlestown lost its roof Union Island, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Full population of 3,000 was affected by extensive damage Estimated 98% of buildings, including houses badly damaged or destroyed Airport control tower destroyed, hospital roof destroyed Power plant received significant damage Government assisting people who wish to evacuate Mayreau, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Total population of 300 people affected 90% of the housing stock and buildings have been damaged or destroyed Palm Island, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Resort and desalination plant significantly damaged More than 40 homes with damage, a number expected to rise Confirmed significant damage to the fishing sector More than 200 boats damaged Significant damage to the coastal infrastructure, particularly along the south coast  Partial road obstruction Significant damage on southern end  Trinidad and Tobago Power outages Water disruption on Tobago  Roadway blockages on both islands Bequia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines An estimated 10% of the homes and buildings suffered roof damage Airport and runway are usable Minimal damages reported Mitchell, Grenada's prime minister, said the island's northernmost parish, Saint Patrick suffered significant damage. The parishes of Saint Andrew, Saint Mark and Saint John also suffered much more damage than the parishes of Saint George and Saint David. "It is clear that agriculture has taken quite a battering. It is clear that many persons have lost their roofs," Mitchell said. "It is clear, in some instances, many people have lost their entire homes."

Boat crash in Long Beach: Cell phone video shows aftermath of yacht hitting jetty LONG BEACH, Calif. - New cell phone video obtained exclusively by FOX 11 shows the aftermath of a boat crash in Long Beach Wednesday night that left one person dead and 10 others injured.  It happened just before 9:30 p.m. at the Alamitos Bay Jetty. The Long Beach Fire Department got a call, reporting that a boat had crashed into the rocks and was taking on water.  "I saw the rocks and it flew up like that," said Angel Mendoza, a witness. Cell phone video from the scene showed passengers on the boat being pulled from the wreckage as the boat continued to sink. Others were sitting on the rocks, bleeding, while the music on the boat continued to play. PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Long Beach yacht crash leaves 1 dead, 3 critically hurt Investigators said a total of 11 people were on board. One man was pronounced dead at the scene, the other 10 on board were hospitalized, three of those in critical condition. "Everyone was bleeding and one guy, his body was just lying there, on the top of the [boat’s] dashboard," said Mendoza.  The man who died was described as being in his 40s or 50s. One friend told FOX 11 that the man worked in real estate. The boat and debris were still in the water alongside the jetty as of Thursday evening, with several curious people making the walk out on the rocks to see it. "You can see blood all over the rocks, a lot of blood," said Mike Mapstead. "It’s just senseless. [They were supposed] to be having a good time." The boat was described as a 40-pleasure craft. The Long Beach Police Department and the U.S. Coast Guard are still investigating the cause of the crash, but officials said speed was believed to be a contributing factor. Local News | Following outcry, Anne Arundel County Council… Share this:. Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) Capital Gazette eNewspaper Local News | Following outcry, Anne Arundel County Council keeps existing zoning for Safe Harbor Podickory Point marina Located in the Podickory Point neighborhood between Sandy Point State Park and the Corcoran Environmental Study Area in Annapolis, the Safe Harbor-owned marina primarily offers boat slips, a clubhouse and other amenities. The marina owner-operator has more than 130 locations in the continental United States and Puerto Rico and has owned the Podickory Point property since late 2021. Under current county zoning, the marina is classified as a yacht club district, or MA3, a classification intended for nonprofit marinas owned and operated by their members. The new marina owners, however, requested to change the property to a light commercial marina district, or MA2, which would allow services such as boat rentals — which are already being offered at the marina — and fuel sales. The request spurred outcry from neighboring residents, who said the proposed changes didn’t align with the Podickory Point community, citing insufficient infrastructure and environmental impacts on the Chesapeake Bay. “We have no public water and sewer service, no fire hydrants,” Debbie Lodato, a Podickory Point resident, wrote in testimony submitted to the council June 17. “We are also extremely vulnerable to flooding, which makes a commercial marina an environmental threat to our community.” Though residents and Safe Harbor were in negotiations to restrict commercial uses at the marina if the changes were adopted, an agreement could not be reached before Monday’s meeting. Amanda Fiedler, a Republican representing Arnold, then moved forward with an amendment to keep the current zoning. Nearly a dozen residents spoke about the marina at the meeting, urging the council to protect their small neighborhood. “At the end of the day, I represent the community of Podickory Point sitting here on the council, and I respect that you did all you could but couldn’t get there,” Fiedler said. Legislation adopting the final Region 4 plan and its comprehensive zoning maps will be voted on at the council’s July 15 meeting.
