Perched on the brink of the continental shelf, our island base of Long Caye lies on the slender coral ring of Glover's Reef, an atoll 35 miles offshore from Dangriga.
Glover's Reef encompasses an 82-square mile shallow lagoon surrounded by the deep waters of the open sea. Within this necklace of coral, you'll find more than 700 pristine patch reefs brimming with the richest variety of marine life in the Caribbean - from the delicate fan coral and spiny urchin to the colorful stoplight parrot fish and elegant southern sting ray. Snorkelers and divers alike are enchanted by the spectrum of sea life here, whether they're wading just off shore or exploring the depths along "The Wall", a world-class dive site off the back of Long Caye.
Overhead and along the sand you'll spot feathered creatures, too - osprey, pelicans, frigate birds, green-backed heron and others, especially during migratory periods. In recognition of the outstanding natural quality of Glover's ecosystem, it has been designated a National Marine Reserve and in 1997 was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Featured on the cover of Outside Magazine, our base at Long Caye was built with the goal of preserving the integrity of this ecosystem, and our facilities have been kept rustic by design. Guests love their thatch-roofed cabanas, each complete with a porch overlooking the sea. Each tent palapa is unique and private, some are perched on the beach, and others are hidden beneath the palms. On every trip, our kitchen and dining hall, with open-air views of the lagoon and a neighboring island, become the center of community life. We've made sure our entire Water Sports Center blends into the undeveloped, natural atmosphere of this tropical island, unspoiled by the modern world, so you can truly escape.
The facilities and setting make Long Caye a spectacular base for both adventure and relaxation. We provide high-quality equipment and instruction so you can take to the water for all the thrilling sea kayaking, surf kayaking, and windsurfing you could possibly want. But there's plenty of opportunities for the other joys of island life too, not the least of which are the feasts that our local cooks prepare. Grouper Creole, conch fritters, and coconut-baked fish are just some of the seafood delicacies you'll enjoy. Take a break from the sea with a game of beach volleyball. Join in the unique fun of our hermit-crab races. Or watch the sunset, lounging in a hammock. Here, you set your own pace.
Shaded by a forest of palms and surrounded by endless coral reefs, Long Caye is truly a tropical paradise.
