Overview – Belize Sailing Vacations

Our Belize yacht charter itinerary was crafted for the adventurous, those ready to snorkel or scuba dive around one of the world’s most serene and protected reefs – the Belize Barrier Reef, second only to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef in size. This Belize sailing trip also speaks to the more dossel soul, who appreciates the view of scenic anchorages and the peaceful retreat of deserted cayes.

With calm waters and short, line-of-sight passages, Belize bareboat charters enjoy the freedom of mapping their own course. Vacationers on luxury, Belize crewed yacht charters love our robust itineraries and the year-round, sunny 70°F to 80°F weather. It’s hard to pick a favorite stop, as many naturally preserved escapes stretch across 350 stunning miles, but we’re dying to share a taste of all that a Belize sailing charter has to offer.

Types of Belize Yacht Charters

A Belize bareboat charter is ideal for those with previous sailing experience and may require sailing resumes or certification. Chartering a bareboat means captaining your own boat. If you prefer an all-inclusive option, a crewed charter in Belize features a private chef and captain. Choose from Belize catamaran charters or sailboat charters for a smooth sailing experience. Our luxury motor yachts and power catamarans are great for island hopping, as they can sail faster.

Activities & Events – Belize

Combine relaxation with adventure easily, on your Belize yacht charter. Enjoy uncrowded beaches and thrilling water activities, discover the region’s ancient history, and celebrate its present beauty – you choose on your Belizean getaway. Eight days of sunshine and serene vistas beckon.

Here’s a preview of a few things you can expect during your Belize sailing vacation with Virgin Island Sailing®:

  • Exploration of up to 185 miles of the protected and vibrant Belize Barrier Reef, the second-largest barrier reef in the world
  • Superb snorkeling and scuba diving through estuaries, bays, and crystal blue waters, surrounded by cayes with palm-fringed beaches, mangrove atolls, coral, and exquisite marine life
  • Singing, dancing, and merriment at local festivals and island celebrations
  • Peaceful, secluded beaches and open line-of-sight sailing

 

A Few of the Best Places to Visit on a Belize Boat Charter:

  •  The Great Blue Hole: With a local skipper on board or on a day charter, you can witness the largest blue hole in the world. Thousands of years ago, The Great Blue Hole was once a series of caverns until rising tides flooded the caves. Today, deep divers can still see the submerged stalactites and stalagmites – some 40 feet tall – to prove their above-ground origin. The nearly perfect circle stretches approximately 1,000 feet across, surrounded by the Lighthouse Reef Atoll, and plummets over 400 feet deep. This mysterious natural wonder is located about 62 miles off of Belize City, and while only experienced divers (with at least 24 registered dives) can sink in, the mere sight of the deep topaz ring is sure to wow. It’s no wonder the Discovery Channel ranked it as the “#1 most amazing place on earth.”
  • South Water Caye: As the country’s largest marine reserve, these 15 acres of protected land and reefs are overflowing with exotic life. Filled with mangrove forests, estuaries and lagoons, the region is home to unique marine life – like the rare brown boobies, found at Man-of-War Caye – and with lush palms, hibiscus, and other brilliant flowers, it’s positively stunning. Plus, because it’s a secluded island with no facilities other than two resorts and a marine study abroad dorm, South Water Caye is a lovely, quiet escape far from the crowds. Sunbathe on the south-end beach, or take a short swim to snorkel the reef. Depending on the weather, it’s only about a 45-minute sail from Dangriga.
  • Ambergris Caye & San Pedro: In Mayan times, San Pedro was once a fishing village and trading post. Today, it’s a booming town on Ambergris Caye. On San Pedro, no building is taller than a palm tree! Explore the colorful streets with golf carts and bicycles, do a little shopping, and enjoy fresh-caught fish and lobster, as well as local beer and drinks, before visiting the coastline. Unlike other tourist-heavy regions like Cancun, there’s no fighting for room on the beach. It’s a wonderful spot away from the center of town to sit amongst the trees and tropical flora, splash around, or fish in the Caribbean Sea.

Grab a mooring buoy, and dinghy ashore to unwind on a hammock, or grab your mask and flippers, and snorkel the magnificent barrier reef just offshore. Dine ashore at Carrie Bow Caye, and you will have three restaurants to choose from, so sit back and enjoy some of the region’s spectacular seafood.

top-10-sailing-destinations-Belize_Itinerary-020
Day5

FIRST STOP:

Hatchet Caye, Belize

2.5 hours | 15 miles

Silk Cayes, Belize

0.5 hours | 3 miles

The first thing you’ll notice when you get to the Silk Cayes is that the water is incredibly clear, almost as transparent as glass. Standing on the sugar-white, soft, sandy beach, you’ll see nothing in every direction, only the open ocean. But as you wade deeper into the water, you’ll start to see why people from around the planet travel to these remote islands to go snorkeling.

Day6

FIRST STOP:

Ranguana Caye, Placencia, Bleze

3 hours | 18 miles

  • National Park
  • Top-notch Sailing
  • Birdwatching

Your Belize sailing trip itinerary takes you to the clear, open waters of Ranguana Caye. Take an exciting detour to Laughing Bird Cay National Park for a day of birdwatching and snorkeling. This will add another four nautical miles to the passage, but it’s a leisurely off-the-wind sail and well worth the endeavor. Named for the laughing gulls that nest there, Ranguana Caye has one mooring. Both Laughing Bird Cay and Ranguana Caye are incredibly beautiful examples of Belizean sailing.

SECOND STOP:

Lark Caye, Belize

2 hours | 9 miles

  • Snorkeling
  • Fishing
  • Diving

After a day of exploring Ranguana Caye, sail your Belize charter to Lark Caye, a pristine location ideal for snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing. Snorkeling on the patch reefs near the anchorage is impressive and pleasant. Fishing is great in this area, as is diving.

Maya Beach, Placencia, Belize

1.5 hours | 8 miles

  • Secluded Beach
  • Hammocks

The next stop on your Belize sailing vacation is Maya Beach.

Maya Beach has stores where you can stock up on supplies. This tropical Belize sailing destination also has excellent beach bars where you can cool off with a rum-based tropical cocktail or a cold Belikin beer. Visitors who come here do so to relax, sunbathe, and dine.

FIRST STOP:

Placencia Harbor, Belize

1.5 hours | 8 miles

  • Shopping
  • Great Dining
  • Nightlife

The last night of your Belize yacht charter vacation brings you to a delightfully picturesque village. Placencia Harbor is a lovely, crescent-shaped beach lined with a long row of palms that borders the small town. The people of Placencia are warm and friendly, making your Belize sailing trip even more pleasant. Placencia’s famous “Main Road” is a three-foot-wide concrete path meandering through the sand, passing lots of little local shops and restaurants. Dining out at one of the many restaurants is a delightful way to spend an early evening. There are also a number of bars to celebrate the end of a great Belize charter.

Travel Info for a Belize Sailing Trip

It’s a lot easier to visit Belize than you might think, no matter how you choose to cruise the waters. Many U.S. airports offer flights that land directly in Belize City, where many of our crewed Belize yacht charters board. Most of our Belize bareboat charters board in Placencia, which is roughly a 45-minute flight from Belize City on Tropic Air or Maya Island Air.

Our yacht charter brokers are also here to recommend lodging and land excursions, should you want to extend your Belize sailing vacation, and we can provide options for trip insurance. We are here to assist you in finding the perfect Belize boat charter for your next sailing adventure based on your travel time frame and budget. Our well-maintained Belize sailing charters are available from many top-tier yacht charter companies. 

In addition to Belize sailing vacations, see all of our Caribbean destinations, including the British Virgin Islands and US Virgin Islands, for your next sailing adventure. See all of our sailing destinations worldwide.

Belize Bareboat Charter Packing Checklist

Crewed Belize Charter Packing Checklist

 

 

 

We had a FANTASTIC crewed charter in Belize! The charter agent was very knowledgeable about the boats and the area, and found us the perfect boat and crew for our group of 4 couples! They were very thorough in follow through with all of our questions and requests! This was our second time using Virgin Island Sailing and it definitely won’t be the last!

– Todd B.

Excellent experience the whole way through! Everything was well organized, well thought out, and a wonderful experience from booking to planning to sailing. Highly recommend asking Virgin Island Sailing about BSV when sailing in Belize. Our crew was amazing!

– Linda D.

Our trip to Belize with Shane and Andrea exceeded our expectations. Having a local crew made our experience all the more special. We enjoyed all the dishes prepared by Andrea, and we loved the encounters with the sealife that they made possible. Our crew constantly looked for ways to make us comfortable and ensure we enjoyed our time in Belize. I would recommend Belize Sailing Vacations (booked through VI Sailing) to anyone!

You agree that your payment is for the total amount set forth in the applicable Charter agreement (which Charter Provider may refer to as a Charter Contract, Charter Agreement, Booking Terms & Conditions, Instructions and Terms for Accommodations, as well as other derivations) provided to you by Broker (“Charter Agreement”). Upon execution of the Charter Agreement and receipt of the applicable deposit, you will have made a reservation for the Charter that authorizes Broker to facilitate the Charter on your behalf (“Charter Reservation”), including making payment arrangements with the Charter Provider. You further agree that Broker is a third-party beneficiary to the Charter Agreement and shall have the right to enforce such agreement to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder or under the Charter Agreement.

 Broker retains the Broker Fee as compensation in arranging your Charter Reservation. The Broker Fee varies based on the amount and type of Charter and/or services provided by Broker.  By making a Charter Reservation, you accept and agree to the relevant cancellation and no-show policy of the Charter Provider set forth in the Charter Agreement. Cancellation and no-show policies vary for each Charter. Carefully read the Charter Agreement and additional information provided to you by Broker. It is expressly agreed by Charterer that the Broker Fee is earned at the time the Charter Reservation is made. Late payment, wrong credit card or debit card details, invalid credit or debit cards, or insufficient funds are for your own risk and account, and you will not be entitled to any refund of any prepaid amount unless the Charter Provider expressly agrees otherwise under the Charter Agreement or in some other signed writing.

  1. Charter Rules and Restrictions. Additional terms and agreements will apply to your Charter Reservation and any purchase or rental of equipment or other items, supplies, provisions and travel you may select. Please read those additional terms carefully. In particular, if you have purchased airfare, please ensure that you read the full terms and conditions of carriage issued by the supplier. You agree to abide by the terms of purchase imposed by any supplier with whom you elect to deal, including but not limited to payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the supplier’s rules and restrictions regarding availability, charges, fares, and use of products and services.
  2. Payment. All payments must be made by personal check, bank/wire transfer, ACH payment and/or with a major credit card unless otherwise expressly stated. The total price for the Charter Reservation will be billed in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated. Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a reservation from outside of the United States on a US credit card, your bank may convert the payment amount to your local currency and charge you a conversion fee. This means the amount listed on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and therefore a different figure than the amount provided by Broker for the Charter Reservation. In addition, a foreign transaction fee may be assessed if the financial institution that issued your credit card is located outside of the United States. Booking international travel may be considered to be an international transaction by the financial institution or card company. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your financial institution on the day that it processes the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your financial institution. Broker shall not be liable to you for any such service, conversion, or exchange fee.

 Broker expressly reserves the right to cancel your Charter Reservation if full payment is not timely received as set forth in the Charter Agreement.

  1. Cancellation and Rescheduling. You may cancel or change your Charter Reservation as set forth in the Charter Agreement by and among you, the Charter Provider and/or Broker. Please note that some Charter Providers do not permit changes to or cancellation of reservations after they are made, or after a certain date, as indicated in the Charter Agreement. You agree to abide by the terms of the Charter Agreement with respect to your Charter Reservation. Broker will not be responsible for reimbursing Charterer for any previously tendered deposits or payments by Charterer and disclaims all liability for the failure of a Charter Provider to refund or return any such funds.
  2. Credit Card Transactions and Chargebacks. If for any reason, any Charter Provider is unable to provide the Charter, or any part thereof, for which you have contracted, your remedy lies against the Charter Provider, and not against Broker. However, Broker will use reasonable efforts to assist you and Charter Provider in reaching a resolution to a dispute between you and the Charter Provider. In the event that your payment has already been transferred from Broker to Charter Provider or to an escrow account, you agree that you will not seek a chargeback against Broker for such amounts transferred. You further agree to indemnify and hold Broker harmless from and against any liability, loss, damage or expense (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Broker may incur in connection with chargebacks against Broker or under the Charter Agreement and your performance thereunder. If Broker incurs any costs, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, to recover any payments charged back by your credit card company or other financial institution, you agree that you will be liable for these costs. If your payment is declined for any reason, you agree to settle any amounts owed to Broker via money order, cashier’s check, personal check or bank/ACH transfer immediately.
  3. Broker Responsibility. Broker makes arrangements with the Charter Provider. Broker additionally makes additional arrangements with other suppliers for the various components and other services that comprise your Charter (“Charter Suppliers”). Broker is not an agent of these Charter Providers or the Charter Suppliers (and the Charter Providers and Charter Suppliers are not agents of Broker). Broker expressly disclaims any liability for the actions or omissions of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. The Charter Providers and the Charter Suppliers reserve the right to refuse service to you at their sole discretion. Broker assumes no liability for the acts of the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers in refusing service. Broker is not responsible for schedule changes and does not offer compensation for those changes. Broker is not responsible under any circumstances for any injury or damages you may suffer, in connection with sea, air or ground transportation, hotel accommodations, or other travel or excursion services arranged by Broker.

 You understand Broker is not the source or supplier of the Charter or other travel services you requested and acts solely as a broker for the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. You agree that the Charter Provider and Charter Suppliers whose names appear in the information supplied to you are those who are solely responsible for providing the Charter you purchase. You consent to and request the use of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers and agree to not hold Broker responsible should any of them: (i) fail to provide the Charter or travel services you purchased, whether or not such services are listed in the Charter Agreement or otherwise, (ii) fail to comply with any applicable law, or (iii) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes you any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience.

By using Broker’s services, you waive and release any claim against Broker, its affiliated and subsidiary companies, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents, arising out of or in connection with any loss of or damage to property or injury to any person caused by reason of (i) any defect, negligence, or other wrongful act or omission, or any failure of performance of any kind, by any Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, or any other provider of sea, airline, hotel, ground transportation or any other travel provider connected to or otherwise associated with the Charter, (ii) any claim for inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, mental distress or other similar claim, (iii) any delayed departure, missed connection, substitute accommodation, termination of service or change in fares or rates, and (iv) overbooking, flight or other travel cancellation, lost or misconnected personal property, or any claim arising out of the air transportation portion of your travel, and (v) or any other claim arising out of or otherwise related to the Charter Agreement or services provided by the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers.

Excepting only liability that directly arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Broker, you will not hold Broker responsible for any injury, damage or loss you may suffer while on a Charter, whether incurred on the Charter or in connection with any other rental, purchase, excursion or activity, regardless of the relationship of any of the foregoing with the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers.

  1. Your Responsibility. By booking a Charter with Broker, you agree to defend and indemnify and hold harmless Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, causes of action, demands, recoveries, losses, damages, fines, penalties or other costs or expenses of any kind or nature, including but not limited to reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with: (i) your breach of these Terms or the documents referenced herein; (ii) your violation of any law or rights of a third party; or (iii) your use of the Broker website.

You will review your Charter Agreement and travel documents for accuracy upon receipt. You understand that it is your responsibility to review the accuracy of all details in the Charter Reservation provided to you, and that you may contact Broker if you have any questions.

You assume full and complete responsibility for checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of your destination(s), and all conditions regarding health, safety, security, political stability, and labor or civil unrest at such destination(s).

You understand that Broker recommends purchasing travel insurance to cover certain risks inherent in travel such as supplier bankruptcy and the inability to travel due to a medical or personal emergency.

  1. No Warranties. All Charters, products, services, advice and information is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied to the fullest extent permitted under the law, including but not limited to, warranties of title or implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality or fitness for a particular purpose. Without limiting the above, no warranty or guarantee is made (i) regarding the acceptance of any reservation request or Charter Reservation; (ii) regarding the availability of Charters, or any other product and/or services through Broker; (iii) that the use of Broker’s website will be error-free; or (iv) regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability or quality of any information, content, data, service, advice or merchandise provided by Broker or through Broker’s website.

Broker has no special knowledge regarding the Charter Provider’s or Charter Supplier’s financial condition, unsafe conditions, health hazards, weather hazards, or climate extremes at locations to which you may travel during or otherwise in connection with your Charter.

  1. Limitation on Liability. In no event shall Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and/or their respective affiliates, or any employees, agents, officers, directors, members or managers of any of the foregoing (“Broker and Charter Releasees”), be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of, or in any way connected with, your access to, display of or use the Broker’s website, the Charter or services provided to you in connection with the Charter (including, but not limited to, your reliance upon opinions of the Broker), whether based on a theory of negligence, contract, tort, strict liability, consumer protection statutes, or otherwise, and even if Broker and/or any other of the Broker and Charter Releasees have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

If, despite the limitation above, Broker or the Broker and Charter Releasees are found liable for any loss or damage which arises out of or in any way connected with any of the occurrences described above, then Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Supplier and the Broker and Charter Releasees will in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) the Broker Fee, and (b) One-Hundred Dollars (US $100.00).

The foregoing limitation of liability reflects the allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this section will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have failed of its essential purpose. The limitations of liability provided in these Terms inure to the benefit of Broker and/or its providers.

The foregoing does not affect any liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

  1. Limitation on Time to File Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF RELATING TO BROKER’S SERVICES OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
  2. Waiver. No waiver by Broker of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Broker to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
  3. Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.
  1. Governing Law and Mandatory Venue. The laws of the State of Florida govern the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement and the interpretation, construction and enforceability thereof. You agree that any action or proceeding initiated by Charterer against Broker shall be brought solely in the federal and state courts of Hillsborough County, Florida, and you submit to the jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over you by those courts. In the event any action or proceeding is initiated by Charterer in a court outside of Hillsborough County, Florida, Charterer agrees to pay Broker’s costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees associated with defending such action or proceeding and waives any and all defenses to the transfer of said action or proceeding, whether jurisdictional or otherwise, to a federal or state court in Hillsborough County, Florida.
