Dear Slickrock Friends, Thank you for following us, visiting us, or contemplating a visit to us. Next season is proving to be extremely popular, and we may well be in a position of turning people away on some weeks. Neri Chi with guests for a night snorkel week before last The business has never been pretentious, in fact, quite the opposite. Less is more, and the rustic cabanas, with a relaxed vib

Dear Slickrock Friends, We are closing for non-charter bookings imminently, with the very last chance to snap up a US$900 discount (from US$2,400 to US$1,500 per person), for 29th April – 8th May 2022. Private charters are still available, but otherwise, we will reopen 18th November 2022. Although we have bruises from the pandemic for the past two years, we are determined to come back to our

Dear Slickrock Friends, We have a fire sale of 25% discounts for April 22nd, and April 29th (US$1,500 per person). Due to increasing prices in fuel, inflation, third party hotel, and general running costs, we have raised the price to pre-Covid levels, of US$2,400 per person, which is just under the US$2,425 price when I took over in 2018. The last two weeks of April are US$900 less than the new p

New faces will be introduced in the following weeks, who will continue my vision for Slickrock and associated businesses, as I look to step back from the business this year. When I first visited in 2011, there were som

Dear Slickrock Friends, Have a well-earned break, this Spring Break. As we stroll towards the tail-end of our season, with Covid not quite in the rear-view mirror, but getting past the worst of it, we are winding down and preparing to come back from November 25th 2022 until June 2023. Before we say goodbye for the summer, I would like you reassure you we are still here, and not planning to go any

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas, and may your 2022 be a good one. As we reflect on the past year, which actually goes back two years to the Covid situation that started to impact the business, I would like to reassure you that we are still here, despite bruises caused by Covid’s wrath. I have some very basic goals that I am 110% focused on. They are giving the Belizean
