Included

Carnival offers a free boat shuttle from the ship to the terminal. You can walk around the shopping area, but if you want to go to a beach or do any other activities, you will have to book an excursion. If you’re going to choose any port to do an excursion, Belize is the one. There are so many options to choose from 🙂

Excursions

Sharks, Rays, Barrier Reef Snorkel & Island Escape

Set off on a scenic boat ride along Belize’s barrier islands, leading you to the unspoiled paradise of Caye Caulker for an unforgettable three-in-one adventure. Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Belize’s UNESCO-listed barrier reef, where vibrant coral formations and diverse marine life await. After snorkeling, head to Shark & Ray Alley for a thrilling yet gentle encounter with nurse sharks and stingrays as they glide past you. Finally, unwind at The Lazy Lizard, where you can savor delicious food, sip tropical drinks, and take in stunning ocean views. Whether you choose to relax on the beach or join a friendly game of volleyball, this experience offers the perfect balance of adventure and leisure. My family and I felt completely safe the entire time and nurse sharks are practically harmless, so don’t let the “scary sounding” title frighten you 🙂
