Caye Caulker is one of Belize's many islands along the Barrier Reef. It is about 19 miles north east of Belize City. It is basically a sandy limestone coral island. Caye Caulker is divided into two parts by a small channel. The north end is mostly mangrove and is not developed. The south houses the town. The entire island is only five miles long. Less developed than San Pedro, Caye Caulker is a care free relaxation spot. It is still primarily a fishing village whose inhabitants are of Mestizo-Spanish descent. Most of the families that live here have been fishing these waters for many years. Caye Caulker is close to the Barrier Reef and has day and night reef and wall diving trips available. Bicycles and golf carts are the main mode of transportation and are available for rental.
