Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Boat Transfer
To reach Manta Island Resort, you will need to take a boat transfer from a nearby location. Start from Belize City, where you can take a taxi or a shuttle to the Belize City Municipal Airport or the Belize City Harbor. From the airport, you can catch a local flight to the nearest island. If you are at the harbor, look for a water taxi heading towards Glover's Reef Atoll. The boat ride typically takes about 1-2 hours, depending on the boat and weather conditions. Make sure to arrange your boat transfer in advance with Manta Island Resort or a local provider, as costs can vary but generally range from $50 to $100 per person round trip.
Local Flight
If you prefer a quicker option, consider taking a local flight from Belize City to an airport closer to the resort, like the one on Dangriga or Placencia. From there, you will still need to arrange a boat transfer to Manta Island Resort. Local flights can be booked through domestic airlines such as Tropic Air or Maya Island Air. The flight usually takes around 30 minutes, and prices typically range from $100 to $200 one way.
Private Charter
For a more personalized experience, you can opt for a private charter from Belize City directly to Manta Island Resort. This option allows for more flexibility in your travel schedule and can be arranged through various charter services. Costs can be significantly higher, ranging from $500 to $1,500, depending on the size of the boat and number of passengers.
