DIY Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker

Just got back from Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker Belize (mid-Apr). Went to catch a bucket fish, but don't have the money for guides. This is my 2 cents. Went to Secret Beach side and waded almost 4 miles north and only saw 1 bonefish. An absolute beautiful setting for bonefish, crystal clear water, and huge shallow flats. You can't walk the big lagoon as it has a muddy bottom. This area surely has bonefish, but they just weren't there when I was. Went to the East side north of most of the resorts and fought with the sargassum, but immediately saw fish. Landed a bonefish, small permit and a small tarpon in less than an hour, but I know it was pure luck. However, I did land other bonefish between piers. The water is stained from the sargassum, so you have to find areas that have the clearer water. Bays were a waste of time as they were filled with the weed, but the points were fishable. If you go as far as you can north to Tranquility Bay, the water gets a lot better and the number of bonefish increase. This is about an hour + golf cart ride on some rough road, but in my opinion, worth it. There were always single tarpon swimming around, but I passed on most because my 8 wt. couldn't handle larger fish. Hooked one about 20#, but not for long. Permit were very scarce and only saw a few, and I only had a shot at one. I averaged about half a dozen bonefish a day, and I felt really good about that. Saw one huge school of jack and landed one. Caye Caulker was even tougher as there were almost no areas you could walk to if you were on the north island. The South Island near the split had a LOT more bonefish and tarpon, but with all the bars, boats and piers, it was hard to fish. However, every bar on a pier that I went into I would have bonefish swimming around. Every bartended I asked didn't mind if I walked out among the picnic tables (out in the water) to fish for bones. Caught my biggest bonefish will standing on a bench with my 8 wt and a beer on the table. Obviously we are talking about earlier in the day when hardly anyone was around. I did this for 2 days and landed some of the bigger bonefish of the trip. Although I would have much rather been out on a pristine flat without another soul around, this was the trip I could afford and I take great pride in catching fish every day in an area I've never been, with flies that I tied, and without the help of guide. I hope this helps anyone else who might be in the same predicament as I am. Bucket list checked off.

Altun Ha Mayan Ruins and Cave Tubing With Belize Landquest

Great tour with a great guide.

Cave tubing was spectacular. Very easy in and out of the tubes. Abel was very informative, professional and accommodating. Due to our ships late arrival we were unable to visit the ruins. The lunch was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour.

This was an amazing tour...

This was an amazing tour in large part due to our guides. Errollynn and Jason were awesome. Errollynn is very knowledgeable about the country and local culture. Her delivery with friendly, upbeat and very engaging. We learned a lot despite the rain! Our driver Jason was very funny. We are going to request these two when we come back to Belize. They are a dynamic duo!
