Proposed itinerary
The Belize is the second largest barrier reef in the world and the biggest in the Americas. It's a nature's paradise with deserted island and isolated lagoon. The Belize is a snorkels and diver's paradise. The navigation is done within the barer reef. The natural protection of the reef combined with the well know stability of the Catamaran makes it the perfect match again the swell. Those who love the sea but regularly suffer from sea sickness will find this trip perfect for them. Catamaran are also perfectly adapted to navigation in shoal water that form most lagoon. Beside the water sports, the participants will also enjoy the various visit of the nearby Maya ruins… This proposed 10 days trip will starts from San Pedro (north of the barrier reef).

We will sail south anchoring nearby deserted island in beautiful lagoon all for ourselves. See the map below

Also, read the charter's company proposed 7 and 10 days itinerary.

CHARTER WITH SKIPPER (see above for barebaot charters)

We offer a very attractive and economical charter formula. Affordable Yachting will charter a boat and provide a free professional skipper. This skipper is not paid for his service, he/she does it for the shear pleasure of sailing the boat with friends.

There are many advantage to this formula beside being economical. We always chose recent boats that are well maintain and kept clean. We always chose good charter companies know for their excellent services and quality fleet. By using other people's fleet rather than maintaining our own, we can devote 100% of our attention to the success of our expedition…

The cabins are rented in a double or single occupancy depending of the configuration. Each passenger will contribute his share to the "pot". The "pot" is the community boat expenses including food, drinks, fuel, water etc. Count around $25/per day/person. The skipper do not contribute to the pot.

We have places available on these boats:
