We enjoyed Caye Caulker a few years back in 2018, it’s certainly worth a visit for the laid back island vibe. Be warned though that at certain times of the year it can have a bad problem with Sargassum, and pretty much the entire island absolutely reeks. It’s impossible to ignore the stench of the rotting seaweed, especially closer to the shore line, it’s sadly enough to make you nauseous and ruins what is otherwise a great place.

@@andyb5259 That's a great point. Do you know what time of year sargassum is most likely, or does it depend on the tides?

@@jaydubdiscoverieswe encountered it around the middle of November 11th-18th i think. I’ve seen it at different times of the year in other Caribbean locations though. I’ve also heard it can vary a lot depending on the year and how warm the surrounding ocean is - i did a brief search that seemed to indicate it was bad in 2018 and 2019, but not so much in 2020-2021, then back again in 2022-2023 The biggest problem imho was that nobody was taking responsibility for clearing it up (out so it seemed), and in fairness Caulker is small so there would definitely be an issue of what to do with it. But whilst on Ambergris Caye and the various other affected Caribbean destinations, we saw most hotels clean their own beach area and remove the Sargassum, but nobody ever did this on Caulker and it was left to rot and stink. The hotel we stayed in in Caulker was very nice (for a given ‘rustic charm’ value that you get in Caulker 🤣) but despite we were probably 50 yards from the shore, the smell of the sargassum (it’s akin to rotting fish for those who have never come across it before) was enough to make me gag, and genuinely consider immediately leaving the island 🙁(and we would have certainly missed out if we had).

Spent the last week of February on Caye Caulker for our wedding anniversary and had a fantastic time! Your assessment of the people is right on - they are incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming. And the food is incredible, especially the "street places", but the small neighborhood type restaurants are fabulous as well. Looking forward to going back. HUGE difference between Caye Caulker and Ambergris Caye / San Pedro. CC's island motto of "Go Slow" is great. Great video review! Cheers!

@jaydubdiscoveries5 ай бұрын
@@costtv thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! We didn't get to San Pedro on this trip since we found enough to do on Caye Caulker each day. There are boats that will take you there several times each day, and it was suggested that you get on an early boat if that's something you have time for. San Pedro can easily take up a day or two itself, which is why we decided to save it for our next trip. Enjoy your visit in August!
