10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Belize That You Shouldn't Miss

March 21, 2022 Marianna Hollaway

According to famed diver Jacques Cousteau, the Great Blue Hole of Belize is one of the most spectacular dive sites on earth. The crystal-clear sapphire waters are home to colorful tropical fish and several species of reef sharks – ideal for brave divers who love to get up close and personal with sea life. On dry ground, diverse rainforests, mangrove swamps, and Mayan ruins are perfect for exploration. The beaches of Belize are sunny and tranquil spots for a day of relaxation.

(English below) Abbiamo fatto il massaggio combinato (deep tissue, hot stone, scrub e maschera viso e piedi) di coppia, entrambi siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti. L'atmosfera è magica, musica rilassante, nella stanza c'è fresco e si trova in mezzo a un bel giardino (quello del ristorante, precisamente). In più, le ragazze sono molto gentili e preparate. Lo consiglio assolutamente! Bonus, si può prenotare su Internet senza bisogno di passare prima o di telefonare. We've done a couple massage, we asked for the combo one, which includes deep tissue, hot stone, and feet and face mask and scrub. We are both very pleased. The atmosphere there is magic, very relaxing, nice music, and from the Windows you can see the garden below (of the restaurant). Also the room is cool enough, and the girls are very nice. Definitely recommend! Bonus because you can book online, without having to ring them or come by before your treatment to book it.

We visited San Pedro and this wonderful shop 3 years ago and I couldn’t get their Body Whip out of my mind. Found nothing that comes close so I finally ordered 4! Shipping was fast, packing was great, and a small surprise gift was adorable. I can’t believe I waited this long to order, but I’ll be back, Lara!

Loved the hour long learning and tasting of coco beans. The coco nibb cookies at the counter are delicious and we got a couple bags of coco nibbs to go so we could bake and make smoothies at home!

Namaste Yoga

Since 2008, Namaste Yoga (formerly named RandOM Yoga) is a donation-based yoga studio on the barefoot-friendly island of Caye Caulker, Belize. Our open-air studio is located on the top floor of Namaste Cafe, offering a panoramic view of Caye Caulker. You'll enjoy views and a great breeze. Classes are an island-style and are suitable for all levels of practice, including beginners. We provide complimentary mats, blocks and straps. Hope to see you there!

Truly exceptional. Great space and yoga classes are well taught and good for everyone....8am and 10am. Jessie makes everyone feel comfortable and makes her "craft" available to all people regardless of their ability to pay through her "donation only" method of payment. Although I have yet to eat at her café the food being served (breakfast/lunch only) looked quite enticing! Staying on this island for 30 days and look forward to many classes including Sunset Yoga Monday/Wednesday at 5pm.

Red Flower Gallery

Red Flower Gallery has a beautiful selection of paintings by artist Paulette Salo. She is very well known for classical murals in the US. The paintings here are all scenes of Caye Caulker. One of a kind gift handmade items jewelery, and beachware and the best bug spray you can find.

Reviewed By Gastineau - Seattle, United States

We didn’t go to Caye Caulker to shop. That said, we wandered in to learn more about the insect repellent sold here and stayed to hear some of Paulette’s life experiences and restaurant recommendations on the island. The local Belizean artwork for sale here is also worth looking at. Her paintings are delightful, colorful, and reflect much of life here. She also generously promotes other local artists on the island. She alone is worth a walk into the store. It’s a good place to hang during a tropical storm, too!

We commissioned Walter to paint a depiction of Hopkins Inn. We gave Walter some ideas of what we wanted included and let his creativity fill in the blanks. Walter visited Hopkins Inn to experience the place and people, developed a sketch on the canvas, and then produced a detailed piece of art he titled “Nice Vibes.” We love it!
