Welcome to Rustic!
Are you looking for somewhere to stroll arm in arm, barefoot along sandy shores watching huge frigate birds dive for fish into the crystal clear tropical waters of the Caribbean Sea? Would you like to relax with a book in your hammock sipping an ice cold rum punch watching the waves crash over the distant reef? Fancy a spot of adventure?
Take the water taxi to the City (own expense)where you are met by your guide and driven west into the Jungle. Upon arrival at Jaguar Paw you will be kitted out with a headlamp and rubber tube. Take a fascinating jungle walk for 30 minutes to reach the mouth of the cave. Now you are ready to float 7 miles along Belize's longest and most spectacular "River of Caves". As you float on inner tubes with only your headlamp to light your way, you will see stalagmites jutting from the river, stalactites looming from above, and floating past beautiful underground waterfalls.
After your cave adventure, there is a short walk back to the entrance where a delicious lunch is served. Your guide brings you back to the city to catch the last water taxi back to Caye Caulker.
Optional: Add Belize Zoo – an amazing collection of rescued wildlife indigenous to Belize, including the Jaguar, Ocelot, Tapir, Howler Monkey, Toucan, Scarlet Macaw, Tree Frod, Iguana, Crocodile, and Boa Constrictor. ($30usd)
Daily departures are year-round. Subject to high water levels during the rainy season.
