    Experience sea kayaking in Belize right off Long Caye’s shore, where the shallow waters inside the Belize Barrier Reef and the remote offshore atolls provide endless opportunities for exploration. Paddle to offshore islands, reefs, and hidden mangrove swamps, and spot colorful schools of tropical fish.

    With the clear and warm waters, you can easily snorkel from the sea kayaks and encounter turtles, porpoises, sharks, and giant groupers. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced kayaker, Belize’s calm tides and lack of strong currents make it the perfect place to learn or improve your sea kayaking skills.

    Slickrock Guest Kayak Fishing in Belize at Glover_s Reef Atoll

    Long Caye is a prime location for kayak fishing at Glover’s Reef Atoll. The latest fishing kayaks are equipped with tackle storage, rod holders, fish holds, and anchors, providing an alternative to fishing from the shore or dock. A sit-on-top kayak’s versatility and stealth capabilities make it easier to reach fantastic fishing locations and allow fishermen to access fishing spots that would otherwise require hiring a guide and boat.

    Although trolling on the outer reef is not always possible, a variety of fish species, such as grouper, dorado, permit, kingfish, and marlin, can be found on the outer wall, just 100 yards away from your cabana!
