Tobacco Caye - Another stay in Paradise




Palms were waving in front of our window, the sea was just a spit away and the sun was smiling - daylight on Tobacco Caye. We were surprised how small the island is. 200 + 300 meters, walked around it in 2 minutes. Crystal clear water and the Reef in the back made it a perfect place to hang out. Just a few very colourful houses and cabanas streches along the sandy island. Millions of conch shells surrounding nearly every coconut tree on the Island.







It didnt take long till we know everybody on the island and get along quite will with the - maybe 20 - inhabitants. There is not much to do here - but thats what you are here for. Sunbathing, snorkling, diving and drinking coconuts were just a few of these exhausting activity´s on Tobacco Caye.










We decided to go diving on a closer Reef - the South Water caye. There was just us in a small fisher boat with the dive guide and the captain. Captain Jack. We had an awesome day in the very clear and calm water. We dived very long dives between untouched corals and no other divers at all. There was just no big fish around.. little bit disappointed, except an eagle ray crossed our way..















Captain Jack was the perfect model for us, a crazy and funny Belizian guy.











When we came back, Nigal chopped us coconuts to drink, they were very tasty.. we enjoyed them while watching an amazing sunset.







Last day on Tobacco: sunbathing, snorkeling, Rum & Cokes. We watched Joe cleaning the Conch Shells, tried some of the glibbery part of this delicatesse and had a long talk with the owners of our place.. They were so cute, lovely, fun and knows a lot about Belize. Go Fairweather, to Pandy and Hellen if you once go to Tobacco.









Lots of Eagle Rays appeared on the beach to eat the Conch shells..





It was sad to leave this beautiful place on earth, but this time we had a nice ride to the mainland, calm sea and lots of sun in our faces..
