Hi all, I was just working out our travel arrangements for our first trip to Belize and I came up with a scenario I'd like to get some input on... Our flight is scheduled to arrive in BZE at 3:55pm. We'd like to take a water taxi from Belize City to San Pedro (via belizewatertaxi.com) but I read that it is about a 20 minute taxi ride from BZE to the water taxi (last water taxi leaves at 5:30pm). Considering we'll have to get our luggage and clear Customs before we can grab a taxi to take us to the water taxi, will we be cutting it too close for comfort? Should we plan to grab the 4:40pm or 5:40pm flight (via mayaregional.com) instead? Thanks for any help you can offer me in this situation. Brandon

Hi Yes I would opt for the flight to San Pedro, you should be able to make the 4:40 flight ok.
Have a great trip and enjoy your stay.

Regardless of what time you arrive at International, opt for a flight on either Tropic or Maya.......it's well worth the expense.....you'll be on the Island in 15 minutes and will enjoy the scenary from 2,000 feet in the sky.
I'm happier than a pig in s__t...a foot on the sand...and a Belikin in my hand!

Nah, take the water taxi - it will totally relax you and get you in the mood for island life. The hour plus you spend getting from the mainland to San Pedro will be one of the best hours you will ever spend.  We did our first trip and that, in itself, hooked us!

nope dawged...you're cute as can be but I disagree. Slow boat in and plane out. Nothing worse than travelling 10 + hours covered in salt spray ... however, bar hopping with salt in your hair for the first day is so welcome!
