Getting there

Car

If you're traveling by car, head towards the coastal town of Placencia. From the center of Toledo District, take the Southern Highway (Hummingbird Highway) north towards the junction for the Placencia Road. Follow the signs to Placencia, which will lead you to the coast. Once in Placencia, continue to the end of the peninsula, where you will find the ferry terminal. Park your car at the long-term parking area, if available, and take the ferry to Harvest Caye. Be aware that there may be a ferry fee, typically around $10 USD per person for a round trip.

Public Transportation

For those using public transportation, you can catch a bus from the main bus terminal in Punta Gorda heading to Placencia. The journey will take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. Once you arrive in Placencia, walk to the ferry terminal at the end of the peninsula. Depending on the bus schedule, you may need to wait for the next ferry, which usually operates every hour. The ferry ride to Harvest Caye takes about 15-20 minutes, and the round trip fare is generally around $10 USD per person.

Taxi

If you prefer a more direct route and don't want to deal with public transport schedules, consider hiring a taxi from anywhere in the Toledo District to take you directly to Placencia. This option is more expensive, with fares generally ranging from $50 to $100 USD depending on your exact location. Once you arrive in Placencia, you will still need to take the ferry to Harvest Caye, which costs around $10 USD per person for a round trip.
