A blue fish camp and coconut palms greet guests at Rendezvous Cay.\u00a0 Take pleasure in a purely relaxing afternoon on board with time to play on the yacht\u2019s exciting array of toys. \u00a0This evening a beach barbecue dinner sets the pace for your luxurious Caribbean charter.<\/p>\n<p>Day 2: Turneffe Atoll (Southern End \u2013 Big Cay Bokel)<\/p>\n<p>Sail to Turneffe Atoll, the largest of Belize\u2019s three atolls that spreads over 30 miles north to south. The islands consist of hundreds of mangrove cays rimming both the east and west side of a shallow reef-fringed bank. The southern part of Turneffe is well known for fishing and diving. For many, the Elbow is the most exciting dive (for advanced divers only). Often hampered by strong currents, it is these same currents that make it so spectacular. Large predatory sharks, big groupers, eagle rays and sea turtles are often seen. Spend the day diving and fishing and savor gourmet lunch and dinner on board.<\/p>\n<p>Day 3 &amp; 4: Lighthouse Reef Atoll<\/p>\n<p>Lighthouse Reef Atoll is a must see. It\u2019s exceptionally clear water of aquamarine blue is adorned with numerous jewel-like beads of reef. The beaches are beautiful and miles of virgin coral reefs offer great snorkeling and scuba diving.\u00a0 In the morning board the tender to the world-renowned Blue Hole for the first dive. After lunch cruise to Half Moon Cay, a nature reserve where 4,000 red footed booby birds have made their home. Take the well marked trail to the observation platform for spectacular views.<\/p>\n<p>Day 5: Glovers Reef Atoll<\/p>\n<p>In the morning cruise to Glovers Reef Atoll, the southernmost atoll that is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Glovers Reef Atoll is a circular stretch of coral islands surrounding a shallow lagoon that closely resembles a South Pacific atoll. A few minutes away are more than 600 coral pinnacles and patch coral heads reaching toward the surface. Sheer walls beginning at 25 feet plummet vertically in a dramatic 2,700-foot drop.<\/p>\n<p>Day 6: Queens Cay and Laughing Bird<\/p>\n<p>Queens Cay is a pristine island with gleaming white beaches and fabulous turquoise waters. \u00a0Anchor in about 20 feet of water surrounded by coral reefs, an excellent spot that is home to more than 80 species of fish. Dive along sheer walls, grottos, and canyons, with wall dives that start at 35 feet then drop off plunging into an abyss of 3,000 feet. Enjoy a noontime cruise to Laughing Bird and lunch ashore. This spectacular snorkeling location is also known as a corridor for migrating whale sharks.<\/p>\n<p>Day 7 &amp; 8: Sapodilla Cay<\/p>\n<p>Sapodilla Cay, the southernmost Cay on the Belize Cay barrier reef, is an ideal spot for a daytime anchorage. Head north from Sapodilla Cay to reach Nicholas Cay and an exploration of the renowned gap locally known as \u201cthe Aquarium\u201d.\u00a0 Spend the afternoon enjoying numerous water sports and games. In the evening the chef prepares a sumptuous beach barbecue.<\/p>\n<p>Day 9: Monkey River and Placencia<\/p>\n<p>Drop anchor at the mouth of Monkey River. An expert guide will escort guests on a tour to explore the amazing and abundant flora and fauna onshore. Later, depart for a serene anchorage off the quaint town of Placencia. Have lunch at the five star Francis Ford Copolla Resort\u2019s Turtle Inn Restaurant.\u00a0 Spend the afternoon exploring the unique shops, bars and sites of Placencia. In the evening dine at the French Connection restaurant, voted best cuisine in Belize.
