SAIL THE 2ND LARGEST REEF IN THE WORLD…

While Belize has been an “up and coming” destination for several years, few people know what an unspoiled sailing destination it is. As the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world and 275 miles of coastline protected from the reef, Belize is a uncharted paradise and ideal for any sailing vacation.

For 1st time visitors, a 5-7 night northern itinerary is recommended if you are starting your charter from Belize City. You will be able to enjoy snorkeling at the famous park reserve-Hol Chan/Shark Ray alley while fishing along the way. While each trip is customized based on guest preferences and weather conditions at the time of charter guests typically can choose from the following stops: Ambergris Caye, Drowned Cayes, Water Caye, St. George’s, Long Caye and Robinson Caye.

For returning guests or those looking for a alternative, the southern itinerary is full of isolated cayes, excellent fishing, diving and snorkeling. Pelican Cayes, Ranguana Caye, Hatchet Caye are all in the typical itinerary when your charter starts from Placencia. Additionally, access to Blue Hole and Lighthouse Reef is convenient and your crew will be happy to arrange a side trip on your behalf.
We then recommend a 2-3 night stay in a jungle lodge on the mainland where you can tour the Mayan Ruins, cave tube or canoe through Caves Branch river or repel through the ATM. We can guide you and assist you through the booking process should you choose this additional experience.

We invite you view our Belize featured yachts and review our suggested itineraries for both the Northern and Southern regions and look forward to speaking with you about a country we lived and sailed in for 6+ years!

Belize

Northern Belize Itinerary:

General Itinerary: (Please note: this is a general itinerary of what you can expect. Your actual itinerary will be dictated by weather conditions at the time of charter along with your group’s preferences) Please use the following itinerary as a guide for ideas to discuss with your crew.

Day 1
ST. GEORGE’S CAYE
Steeped in history, St George’s Caye was the first capital of the British settlement in Belize. The island is principally home to private families, however it is possible to use this as a base for some great snorkelling, scuba diving and fishing. On the island there is a very special aquarium in the boathouse at the St Georges Caye Lodge. Your tour guide is the resort owner’s son Karly Ricky Bischof, aged 12. Karly is a budding marine biologist and if his impressive little aquarium and his knowledge of the 100-plus fish inside is any indication, he’s going to be a good one.
Day 2
CAYE CAULKER
Sail to the sleepy island of Caye Caulker, fish along the way and enjoy a swim on arrival. ‘No shirt, no shoes, no problem’ is the motto of this island and typifies the vibe. The white sandy beaches, ocean breezes, fresh seafood, azure waters and a fantastic barrier reef on its doorstep make it a perfect place to relax and unwind. A trip to Caye Caulker is not complete without a late afternoon Belikin beer or a rum punch at the Lazy Lizard bar at ‘The Split’ – a lively swimming area, which separates the two islands of Caye Caulker.
Day 3
HOL CHAN MARINE RESERVE
Enjoy a morning of snorkelling at Hol Chan Marine Reserve, swimming amongst beautiful shoals of tropical fish, turtles, eagle rays, stingrays, moray eels and grouper. Follow this with a dip at Shark Ray Alley, a site where local fishermen used to clean their catch, which attracts more carnivorous species such as big southern stingrays and nurse sharks!
Day 4
AMBERGRIS CAYE
Ambergris Caye is the most northerly Caye in Belize and touches the Yucatan peninsular of Mexico. Lying only a quarter of a mile from the barrier reef, it is one of the best locations in the world for scuba diving, snorkeling and sports fishing. The main town San Pedro has the broadest range of tourist amenities in Belize, including art and craft shops, boutique hotels, fine dining establishments and plenty of fun local eateries to explore. Should you find yourself with some extra time…rent a golf cart and head north to enjoy lunch under and a beverage in a hammock at our old stomping ground…. Mata Grande Grocery now called The Winey Gringa.
Day 5
SWALLOW CAYE
Swallow Caye has been declared a wildlife sanctuary to protect the manatees and other marine life that call it home. Manatees, which are also known as ‘sea cows’ are gentle, slow moving, plant-eating herbivores and their closest living relatives are elephants and aardvarks. They can grow over 13 feet in length and weigh up to 3,500 pounds. Despite being an endangered species, manatees are present in the waters of Belize and can be seen throughout the year. (Please note it is not possible to swim with the Manatees).
Day 6
GOFF’S CAYE
Goff’s Caye is one of our favorite islands because it reminds us why postcards were invented. The 2 acre island sits right on the barrier reef so you can snorkel straight from the shore, or simply relax in the water on the sandbar with an icy cold Belikin beer. Dolphins frequent the waters and we’ve on occasions spotted a manatee, amongst the other kaleidoscope of marine life.
Day 7
EXPLORE BELIZE ISLANDS – RETURN TO BELIZE CITY
Enjoy breakfast under sail as we make our way back to Belize City for a late morning departure. This is a wonderful time of the morning for dolphin watching and trolling for fish.
Southern Belize Itinerary:
General Itinerary: (Please note: this is a general itinerary of what you can expect. Your actual itinerary will be dictated by weather conditions at the time of charter along with your group’s preferences) Please use the following itinerary as a guide for ideas to discuss with your crew.
Day 1
RENDEZVOUS CAYE
Rendezvous Caye is a tiny private island located right on the Belize barrier reef, with a collection of palapa shades, beach loungers and hammocks, the perfect place to relax or enjoy a beach picnic. You can snorkel along the deep water wall right from the shore and experience the contrast of deep sea and shallows of the corals. Look out for the graceful spotted eagle rays, there are several who come to visit the boats to check on any scraps from the catch of the day!
Day 2
BLUEFIELD RANGE
Bluefield Range is a mangrove cluster teeming with wildlife which makes for a fantastic kayaking destination. Kayak through the tiny channels, look out for manatees and even take some bait and a fishing line and see if you can catch dinner.
Day 3
SOUTH WATER CAYE
South Water Caye is a pristine 12 acre private island that is one of the most beautiful and exclusive islands in Belize. South Water Caye sits on the reef on the north side of South Water Cut, which is a ¼ mile wide gap in the reef. Grunts, black groupers, snappers and moray eels all hide out in the overhangs and making for a spectacular snorkeling experience. Sundowners are a must at the Blue Marlin Lodge, one of favorite little bars in all of Belize.
Day 4
MAN-O-WAR CAYE
Man-O-War Caye is a designated bird sanctuary. From afar it looks like any other tiny mangrove island, but as you journey closer to shore the frenzy of activity becomes apparent, with birds soaring in the sky above in every direction… and the guys strutting their stuff (or inflating their red gular pouches) for the ladies during breeding season. The three different types of mangrove vegetation provide a perfect sanctuary to a variety of indigenous bird species, including Pelicans, Brown Booby birds, and the Magnificent Frigate birds (also known as Man-O-War birds).
Day 5
TOBACCO CAYE
Tobacco Caye is a 5 acre palm-fringed coral island perched on the barrier reef, which makes it a great place to snorkel or dive from the shore, plus its central location means it is within 10 minutes by boat to some of the best snorkel sites in all of Belize. There are a couple of small laid-back resorts and a tiny beach bar serving fresh coconut water and icy cold rum cocktails with hammocks to lounge in. 39 local islanders call this rock their home and it’s a great place to learn about their way of remote island life.
Day 6
PLACENCIA
Placencia was once a sleepy seaside village that is slowly growing up into a small popular beach town, with a collection of local hangouts and some more international and upscale spots, making it a great stop off point for those wanting to indulge in a spa treatment, or renting a golf cart and spending the day checking out local arts and crafts, shops and more! The main street has won the Guinness World Record award for being the narrowest main street in the world, making a popular photo op! The mixology at Rumfish Y Vino is not to be missed and our favorite cocktail is the ginger mojito.
Day 7
RAGUANA CAYE
Ranguana Caye is a remote island on the barrier reef home to a tiny resort with colorful wooden structures, plus a fun beach bar that is welcoming of sail boats and day visitors. The resident parrot ‘Charlie’ is a star attraction, along with the tall swaying palms and pristine white sands of the island.
Day 8
PELICAN CAYES
8 Pelican Cayes is a great anchorage on our journey north or south, as this hidden away collection of mangrove islands are surrounded by some of the most impressive coral heads in the country and teem with incredible marine life. Furthermore, there is a tiny bar hidden away that runs on solar panels and a generator, which makes for a fun pit stop after a day on the water and is not surprisingly called ‘Hideaway Caye’, as if you’d blink you’d miss it.
Day 9
NORTH LONG COCOA
North Long Cocoa is one of our favourite islands as it’s a fisherman and snorkelers mecca, with a maze of sand bars, coral reefs and deep channels in between. There are some palapa structures over the water that make for a perfect place to enjoy an al-fresco lunch and 9 times out of 10 not a soul to be seen for miles around.
Day 10
BELIZE CITY
Enjoy a day sail back to Belize City for a late afternoon departure.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So much to say…..everything was perfect from my 1st contact with Mandy through until we arrived home.  She was responsive to all of our questions and helped us choose the right boat for our family. Everything was exactly as she said it would be from
the initial booking, making payments, giving her advice on different boats and sending links to help us with the ferry!  Mandy was a delight to work with and I would recommend her to everyone!!

We arrived in Tortola and we were met by Nick our captain and Jade our chef!  They are young. Smart, energetic, fun and aimed to please!  They even came along in the waters while we snorkeled and led us to all their favorite spots.  We swam with everything in the sea!

Jade’s cooking was awesome!! Every meal and snack was well thought out, interesting and delicious!!  And I mean delicious!! No wonder she won the culinary award last fall!!

Our week with our boys and their wives can be summed up in my Mother’s Day letter that I received a few days after we got home.  He said , it wasn’t just the sailing , the boat, the waters and the delicious food but I will never forget spending  the week with all my favorite people I!! Those words made it all worthwhile and I know we will all never forget it!!

The food, the cocktails, the toys, the excursions, and just the overall experience was beyond our expectations in every way. This is the ultimate crew on the ultimate boat.

Owner's reply
Hi Amy, I am so happy your family were able to get together for this charter yacht vacation in The BVI. We look forward to working with you in the future for wherever you are interested in chartering next! Cheers Mandy

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Happened upon Mavis @ WLMS yacht Charters thru a recommendation, and after providing trip specs, priorities, group demographics and dietary preferences, she provided 4-5 available boats to consider for our trip. Amazing what you can discern reading and re-reading the vibe of each crew and the water toys they emphasize and the boat's features they promote. Given we aspired to dive everyday, be active everyday, as well stay and eat on the boat every night, we filtered the alternatives quickly. Luckily, we found Karma and its crew of Harry & Kristen available for our blissful week of joy and laughter and too many Rum specials and spectacular dives, and impeccable Just so attention and gourmet, i mean Bib Gourmand Michelin style breakfast, lunches, dinners and everything in between. The attention to detail was perfect, never too much when a book and nap were close at hand, but daily schedule highlights, hustle when necessary and just a refined level of engagement and enjoyment in what the crew was providing. it was the most impressive 24/7 service, while not being intrusive, which is a delicate task on a 50 foot yacht.I know i'm forgetting so much, but i just wanted to highly recommend Mavis for her help getting started with the daunting process, but also to Harry & Kristen for going above and beyond and making our special trip as wonderful as they did

Owner's reply
Thanks Ted! We are so happy you ended up booking Karma with us, hope you have a great rest of your spring!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Four female friends (ages 60+) chartered the Sandy Cinco in early April, 2026. One of us had cruised the BVI on two prior boats, and this one was by far the best!  The boat is spacious, clean, and very well managed. The upper deck is a game changer (most don’t have this). The Captain, Mike, is an excellent sailor, and he went out of the way to show us places in the BVI that no others ever took us. He knows all the best mooring places. Lizzy’s cooking was excellent in flavor and presentation. We ate like Queens!  We felt at home as soon as we stepped on the boat. They paid careful attention to our Preferences forms and gave us exactly what we were looking for. On top of all that, we were blessed with fantastic weather the entire time. And, when we went onshore, Mike and Lizzy were well known to the locals, who would literally welcome us with hugs.  If you plan to charter for four to eight people, USE THIS BOAT AND CREW! You won’t regret anything. In fact, we hope to return in another year or two and won’t consider any other team or boat. Kudo’s to Mandy Walker, our broker,  who helped match us to this boat and helped with logistics.

Owner's reply
Thank you Leigh! I am so glad you had a wonderful charter with Mike and Lizzy on Sandy Cinco! Mike and Lizzy really enjoyed their time with you as well! I look forward to working with you in the future whenever you are ready.

We had an amazing experience from start to finish with WLMS charters throughout the booking process as well as on the charter we did with the Colibiri crew -they were the ultimate hosts and crew which made our 50th birthday trip an experience we will never forget.  We are already planning to return with our teenagers!  Thank you to Graham, Kristiann and Matilda for being so gracious and fun to be around - the food and drinks were also amazing!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As first time clients, our experience was exceptional from the guidance we received in booking our charter with Mandy to the accommodations on board Southern Charm.  Mandy ensured all of our travel needs were met and was with us every step of the way, setting up transportation as well as recommending pre and post charter lodging. She asked questions and listened to our requirements, recommending the perfect match for our charter aboard Southern Charm. Once aboard, it was obvious that the owners/crew had worked diligently to give us the very best experience possible. Every delicious meal was prepared exquisitely, every destination was postcard of beauty, and every activity was filled with fun and adventure. We will be talking out this trip for many years to come.

Owner's reply
Hi Teri, Thank you for booking with us. You guys were a wonderful group to work with and Southern Charm (Kevin and Elizabeth) loved having you onboard as well! Look forward to working with you in the future!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our second trip using Mandy, and of course, everything was perfect! It was for my 50th birthday with our closest friends, and it could not have been better.  The boat (On A Whim) and crew were nothing short of amazing, and Mandy did such a good job pairing us with them.  Our captain, Alex, and first mate, Renee, made our week with them more memorable than we could have ever expected!  Please reach out to Mandy if are looking for someone to create an unforgettable vacation for you.

Hi Kelly! So glad On A Whim delivered a wonderful trip for your 50th birthday!!!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just returned from the most amazing family yacht charter in the British Virgin Islands aboard the stunning Wanderlust — and wow, what a trip! Charne and Dean are the absolute best crew!

From the phenomenal food prepared by the best crew ever, to snorkeling with sea life , zooming through the water on underwater  sea scooters , every moment was magic. We explored islands and hidden caves, watched breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, and even got massages on a floating spa boat!
We made unforgettable memories—from beach motes (beach buggies ) in Anegada to jumping off the plank at Willie T’s and sipping painkillers at the iconic Soggy Dollar. Nights were filled with card games, laughter, and family bonding under the stars.
Huge thanks to the incredible crew of Wanderlust who made this journey so special. Truly a trip of a lifetime !

Thank you Mandy for helping  us put this together ! Wanderlust and the crew , Charne and Dean were absolutely amazing !

Owner's reply
Hi Betsy! Thankyou for taking the time to post a review of Wanderlust-I will share with Dean and Charne. Look forward to catching up and working with you in the future. I'm so glad you got to experience The BVI with your family! Cheers Mandy
