Pelican Beach Resort – South Water Caye

Pelican Beach Resort is a favourite with our mid-range clients and is one of the few islands that sit right on the Belize barrier reef.  The resort is located on 3 1/2 acres on the southern end of the island and has the most idyllic beach perhaps in the whole of Belize where you can snorkel from the shore to coral and brightly coloured fish.! They also offer a guided night snorkel! The Belizean style cottages are rustic and comfortable with verandas positioned to see sunrise and sunset. Meals are authentic Belizean cuisine and the atmosphere is homely and welcoming. Relax all day or you can book island hopping boat tours, diving and kayaking activities. A great choice for couples, families and groups.
