island, resort, reef
A tiny island perched practically on top of the Belize Barrier Reef, Tobacco Caye is just north of the cut with the same name (a “cut” is a break in the reef through which boats navigate). If your tropical island dream includes sharing that island with a few dozen fellow wanderers, snorkelers, divers, rum drinkers, and hammock-sitters, this is your place. Shoppers can seek out hand-sewn gifts by Phillipa (behind Lana’s). Other activities include a number of caye-hopping or underwater excursions to surrounding reef spots or even to Glover’s Atoll, less than an hour’s boat ride away. Check with the dive shop at Reef’s End.
